letra de ffv - townes van zandt

[verse]
well, along come the ffv the swiftest on the line
running long the champ road 20 min behind
running in the subhill headquarters on the line
receiving their strict orders from a station just behind
well, george’s mother come to him with a bucket on her arm
saying my darling boy be careful how you run
well, it’s many a man has lost his life in trying to make lost time
but if you run your engine right you’ll make it just on time
aw, but off of the road she darted and into the rocks she crashed
well the engine she laid upside down and george’s breast was smashed
well his head lay against the firebox door and the flames were rolling high
well i’m proud to be born for an engineer on the champ road to die
well, the doctor come to georgie my darling boy be still
well, your life can yet be saved if it is god’s bless it will
oh, no, no, it will not do, i want to fly so free
well i want to die with the engine i love a hundred forty three
then the doctor said to georgie well you’re life cannot be saved
murdered out on the rail-road, laid in a lonesome grave
but his face was all covered up with blood, his eyes they could not see
and the very last words that g spoke were near my god to thee
