| Lyrics: | Great North Special, would you all board
You can't find a ride like that no more,
The
night the chariot swung down low
Ninety-nine children had a chance to go.
One long
party from front to end
Tune to the whistle going round the bend,
No great hurry, what do
you say?
Might as well to be every way.
Might as well, might as well, might as well,
might as well,
Might as well, might as well, might as well, might as well,
Might as well,
might as well, might as well.
Ragtime slowly for twenty-five miles
Then switch over
to the cajun style
Bar car blowing rhythm and blues,
Rock 'n' roll wailing in the old
caboose.
Long train running from coast to coast
Bringing home a party when you need
it the most
Work on the box car, beat on the bell
Nothing else shaking so you might just
as well.
Might as well, might as well, might as well, might as well,
Might as well,
might as well, might as well, might as well,
Might as well, might as well, might as
well.
Never had such a good time in my life before
I'd like to have it one time
more
Whoa! One good ride from start to end,
I'd like to take that ride again,
again!
Ran out of track and I caught the plane
Back in the county with the blues
again
Great North Special been on my mind
Might as well, might as well, might as
well, might as well,
Might as well, might as well, might as well, might as well,
Might as
well, might as well, might as well |
