Engine, engine number nineComing down the railroad lineHow much farther back did she get offOld brown suitcase that she carriedI've looked for it everywhereIt just ain't here among the restAnd I'm a little upset, yes tell me
Engine, engine number nineComing down the railroad lineI know she got on in BaltimoreA hundred and ten miles ain't much distanceBut it sure do make a differenceI don't think she loves me anymore
And I warned her of the dangersDon't speak to strangersIf by chance she find new romanceWarmer lips to kiss herArms to hold her tighterStirring new fires inside herHow I wish that it was me insteadOut of the he that stands beside her
