作曲：Famous Lashua

It was early in the fall and a blowin' up a squall

From the trestle you could hear the weirdest moans

With a mighty lonesome cry came a whistle from the sky

And it chilled the very marrow in my bones

Then a loud rushing roar like you never heard before

Turned the blood to icy water in my veins

As I watched with rising fear something

Strange was drawing near

And I saw in the clouds ghost trains

(Ghost trains ghost trains what a fearful sight)

The Cannonball and No 9 were racing through the night

Just as they passed me by I heard the engineer cry

Give her coal give her coal shovel it on

You could see the fireman grinning

In the engine that was winning

But I knew before the finish they'd be gone

(Well he knew before the fisnish they'd be gone)

You could see the drivers roll as they

Shovelled on the toll

And the black smoke came pouring from the stacks

As they thundered through the sky I am here to testify

You could hear the wheels a clickin on the tracks

Through the smoke and the steam you could see the headlights gleam

Now I have no proof but still the fact remains

You may doubt it but I swear there were

Cinders in my hair

And I saw in the clouds ghost trains

(Ghost trains ghost trains what a fearful sight)

The Cannonball and No 9 were racing through the night

Just as they passed me by I heard the engineer cry

Give her coal give her coal shovel it on

You could see the fireman grinning

In the engine that was winning

As I watched I saw them fade into the dawn

(As he watched he saw them fade into the dawn)
