Are you rolling western union?
Are you rolling?
I've served upon this railroad for longer than I know
My father and his father did the same thing long ago
To keep the western union rolling down towards the sea
The benefit of this great line was built for you and me
So rolling western union, you can roll on to the sea
Ten thousand miles of beating steel, has made a man out of me
In every state, I've had a home of rivet with my hands
Oh, It's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
It's friends of mine who died upon the building of this line
Irish men and China men and some from the British isles
I've even seen the convicts come to work here for a while
Before the law caught up with them and sent them back to trial
So rolling western union, you can roll on to the sea
Ten thousan miles of beating steel has made a man out of me
In every state, I've had a home of rivet with my hands
Oh, it's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
I had a wife while on the job, and hundred miles on back
She died in Oklahoma and I laid her by the track
I was left as a wooden cross to upright on a mount
And everytime the train rolls past, it rumble
Rock bottom of mine
So rolling western union, you can roll on to the sea
Ten thousand miles of beating steel has made a man out of me
In every state, I've had a home of rivet with my hands
Oh, it's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
Yes, It's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
Are you rolling?
I've served upon this railroad for longer than I know
My father and his father did the same thing long ago
To keep the western union rolling down towards the sea
The benefit of this great line was built for you and me
So rolling western union, you can roll on to the sea
Ten thousand miles of beating steel, has made a man out of me
In every state, I've had a home of rivet with my hands
Oh, It's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
It's friends of mine who died upon the building of this line
Irish men and China men and some from the British isles
I've even seen the convicts come to work here for a while
Before the law caught up with them and sent them back to trial
So rolling western union, you can roll on to the sea
Ten thousan miles of beating steel has made a man out of me
In every state, I've had a home of rivet with my hands
Oh, it's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
I had a wife while on the job, and hundred miles on back
She died in Oklahoma and I laid her by the track
I was left as a wooden cross to upright on a mount
And everytime the train rolls past, it rumble
Rock bottom of mine
So rolling western union, you can roll on to the sea
Ten thousand miles of beating steel has made a man out of me
In every state, I've had a home of rivet with my hands
Oh, it's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
Yes, It's rolling western union, rolling onwards
Onwards through our land
