Crossing Great Salt Lake, U-take

Crossing Great Salt Lake you take
Leaving Heaven's gate, Wyoming
Watch out for those jerks
The next fifteen miles, Slim
You gotta hang on every second
Or you'll go under when she turns
He really balls the jack
Going down the grade
Green River, Wyoming
Tch, no food when you're hungry
No water when you're thirsty
Burn up in the daytime
Freeze at night
Nothing but dirt, noise, and jerks
Can stand everything but the jerks
Rock Springs, Wyoming
Going east, Mister?
Going east, Mister?
Going east, Mister?
There are lots of rides
But they don't stop much, do they, Pa?
Back to the freights for you, boy
And since the drags don't stop at Rock Springs
Back to Green River, Wyoming
