I know these rails we're on like I know my lady's smile,
We see a dozen dreams in every passing mile.
Can't begin to count the trips she and I have made,
But I wish I had a dollar for each time we've both been down this grade.

900,000 tons of steel, made to roll.
The brakes don't work and this grade's too steep, her engine's sure to blow.
900,000 tons of steel, out of control,
She's more a rollercoaster than the train I used to know.

It's one hell of an understatement, to say she can't be beat.
She's tempermental, more a xxxxx than a machine.
She wasn't built to travel at the speed a rumor flies,
Thes wheels are bound to jump the track before they burn the ties.

900,000 tons of steel, made to roll.
The brakes don't work and this grade's too steep, her engine's sure to blow
900,000 tons of steel, out of control
She's more a rollercoaster than the train I used to know.

Murphy sure out done himself to pick this stretch of track
I can only hope my luck is ridin' in the back.
Well I have pray to God this ain't the day we meet,
I've done about everything, but try dragging my feet.

900,000 tons of steel, made to roll.
The brakes don't work and this grade's too steep, her engine's sure to blow
900,000 tons of steel, out of control,
She's more a rollercoaster than the train I used to know.

Oh, oh I want to go down slow.
