lirik lagu judee sill - the wreck of the ffv - fast flying vestibule
along came the ffv the swiftest on the line
running on the c&o road just twenty minutes behind
running into sou’ville headquarters on the line
receiving there strict orders from a station just behind
georgie’s mother came to him with a bucket on her arm
saying my darling son be careful how you run
for many a man has lost his life in trying to make lost time
and if you run your engine right you’ll get there just on time
up the track she darted, against the rock she crashed
upside down the engine turned and georgie’s breast was smashed
his head lay against the firebox door, the flames were rolling high
but i’m proud to be born for an engineer on the c&o road to die
the doctor said to georgie, my darling boy lie still
your life may yet be saved if it is god’s blessed will
oh no said george that will not do i want to die so free
i want to die with the engine i love one hundred and forty three
the doctor said to georgie your life cannot be saved
murdered upon a railroad and laid in a lonesome grave
his face was covered up with blood his eyes they could not see
and the very last words poor georgie said was nearer my god to thee
