Well the big train keeps on rolling
Rolling on down the track
And the way she's moving her body
I don't believe she's ever coming back

The fireman's smoking a big cigar
Sipping Lafite Rothschild Bordeaux
And the engineer's so happy
He's just a-letting that whistle blow

She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling on proud and fine
She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling
Down that long twin silver line

Well she just blazed through Chicago
Nonstop to L.A.
And the way she's steaming buddy
You better not get in her way

She's got the finest fastest pulling twin diesels
She's got ninety three cars in tow
She's gonna be on time all the way down the line
Come the rain hail sleet or snow

She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling on right on time
She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling
Down that long twin silver line

Rolling on down the line
Oh

And she just passed in Chicago
Rolling into Kansas too
Rolling into Denver
Doing all she'll do

And she hangs a big left in Salt Lake City
Southwest to the Nevada line
Rolling into California right on time
Rolling on down the line

She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling on right on time
She keeps a-rolling
She keeps a-rolling
Down that long twin silver line

She keeps a-rolling on down the line
She keeps a-rolling on down the line
She keeps a-rolling on down the line
A-rolling on right on time
A-rolling on down the line
Down that long twin silver line

Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on down the line
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling on down the line
