[D]
From the [F] Atlantic Ocean to the wide [Bb] pacific shore
As [C] she glides along the woodlands to the hills and by the [F] shore
Well, she's mighty big and a handsome and she's known quite well [Bb] by all
She's a [C] regular combination called the Wabash [F] Cannonball
Well, now she came in from Birmingham one cold December [Bb] day,
[C] And as she rolled into the station, well, you could hear all the [F] people say,
Now, there's a little gal from Tennessee, she's long and [Bb] she's tall,
[C] She just came in from Birmingham on the war-bash [F] cannonball.

Now, here stood Daddy Claxton, may his name [Bb] forever stand,
[C] And always be remembered in the courts throughout the [F] land.
