I stepped out this morning

To watch my drivers roll

To hear my whistle blowing

While the fireman slings the coal

When I got to the switchyard

I heard a brakeman say

Oh what a mystery Your engine's cold today

Up stepped a little maiden with a teardrop in her eye

She began Oh Mister Man

Do you pull old Number Five

My daddy was your fireman

And he often spoke of you

Of being so kindharted

So honest so brave and true

He was found dead this morning

On trestle number five

On his way to prepare the morning train for you

The story explaining the mystery

By a little maiden was told

Was the first time in history

I found my engine cold

So you railroad men take warning

And play this game fair

So when the Master calls on us

We'll meet my fireman up there
