What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Along came the F-15 the swiftest on the line
2
Running over the C and O road just twenty minutes behind
3
Running into Cevile head porters on the line
4
Receiving their strict orders from a station just behind
5
Georgie's mother came to him with a bucket on her arm
6
Saying my darling son be careful how you run
7
Many a man has lost his life by trying to make lost time
8
But if you run your engine right you'll get there just on time
9
Up the road he darted against the rocks he crushed
10
Upside down the engine turned and Georgie's breast did smash
11
His head was against the firebox door the flames were rolling high
12
I'm glad I was born to be an engineer on the C and O road to die
13
The doctor said to Georgie my darling son be still
14
Your life may yet be saved if it is God's blessed will
15
Oh no said George that will not do I want to die so free
16
I want to die for the engine I love one hundred and forty three
