OPENER - CLOSER Basic
Circle left
Well now the Union Pacific and the Overland Express
The Frisco and the Santa Fe, they're the biggest and the best
You're gonna walk around that corner girl, gonna weave around you roam
Ride the train, ride the train
Swing your lady, promenade again
Sleeping in a box car when it rains
Ride the train, ride the train
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Well the head 2 couples square thru on the Wabash Cannonball
You're gonna find that corner lady, dosado around you all
You swing thru and then the boys run to the right you know
Do a 1/2 tag and scoot back boys across you go
Now boys run to the right, slide thru with a right pull by
Allemande left new corner girl, you're gonna promenade you fly
*Hear the mighty rush of the engine, hear that lonesome hobo call
No chances can be taken on the Wabash Cannonball
ALTERNATE LYRICS
*On that Chattanooga Choo Choo
Come on and choo choo me home
*Well gonna have a jubilee way down in Memphis, Tennessee
We're gonna shout hallelujah all the way
*Hey look at her run, look at her sail
She's Dallas bound, bound, bound, Fire Ball Mail
MIDDLE BREAK Basic - SSD Week 4

Well look a yonder coming, coming down the railroad track

The Chattanooga Choo Choo, hey this hobo's seen them all
