See that engine puffin', boy she's makin' Time
That old train's a wearin' out the rail rail rail
Headin' for the mountain that she's got to climb Bringin' in the Georgia mail

Ninety miles an hour and she's gaining speed
Listen to the whistle moan and wail wail wail
Has she got the power I'll say yes indeed
Bringin' in the Georgia mail

See em' drivers travel watch her sand the track
Ought to put that engineer in jail jail jail
Has she got her rollin' watch her ball the jack Bringin' in the Georgia mail

A rockin' and a reelin' spoutin' off that steam
bet the fireman hopes the brakes don't fail fail fail
curvin' for the depot listen to her scream
Bringin' in the Georgia mail
