Ben Dewberry's Final Run

Ben Dewberry was a great engineer
He told his fireman, "Don't you ever fear"
All I want is some water and coal
Put your head out the window while she starts to roll
While she starst to roll, while she starts to roll
Put your head out the window while she starts to roll

Ben Dewberry said before he died
Just two more roads was all he wanted to ride
His fireman asked him, "What could they be?"
Said the old Northeastern and the A and B
He said the A and B, he said the A and B
Said the old Northeastern and the A and B

On the fatal morning it began to rain
Around the curve, come a passenger train
Ben Dewberry was the engineer
With the throttle wide open, he didn't have any fear
He didn't have no fear, he didn't have no fear
He had her running wide open without any fear

The big locomotive leaped from the rail
Ben never lived to tell that awful tale
His life was ended and his work was done
When Ben Dewberry made his final run
He made his final run, he made his final run
When Ben Dewberry made his final run
