Buddy Better Get on Down the Line

[Chorus]
Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes 97 makin' up some time
Buddy, this is 97 at your back
Got a ton of coal poured down the stack
Here comes 97 runnin' down the track

[Verse 1]
Hey, hey, pretty baby, hey, hey
Baby, now don't get in my way
When I'm in town, you call me sugar, honey
When I'm gone, just run around and play

[Chorus]
Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes 97 comin' in on time
Met a lot of weather today
Makin' up an hour and a quarter delay
Here comes 97 roarin' all the way

[Verse 2]
Roll on, pretty baby, roll on
You know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You messed around too long and now I'm leavin'
Bye-bye, adios, farewell, so long

[Chorus]
Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes 97 makin' up some time
Buddy, this is 97 at your back
Got a ton of coal poured down the stack
Here comes 97 runnin' down the track

Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes 97 makin' up some time
Buddy, this is 97 at your back
Got a ton of coal poured down the stack
Here comes 97 runnin' down the track
