<pre><font size='+2'>THE GALLOPIN GOOSE lyrics CW MCCALL</font><br>(Chip Davis, Bill Fries)<br />
<br />
On a cold November mornin`<br />
Back in nineteen-thirty-seven<br />
With an early snow a-fallin`<br />
On the three-foot tracks at Ames<br />
Came a mighty strange contraption<br />
Known to trainmen as a motor<br />
But to folks in Colorado<br />
She was known by another name <br />
<br />
Up the canyons south of Sawpit<br />
Past the red Cathedral spires<br />
`Cross the yellow mountain switchbacks<br />
And the rapids far below<br />
On the high and lofty trestles<br />
Near the fabled mines of Ophir<br />
In the silver San Juan Mountains<br />
Came a goose a-plowin` snow <br />
<br />
[Chorus]<br />
With a Pierce-Arrow engine,<br />
Runnin` hot and on the loose<br />
Came the Rio Grande Southern<br />
The Gallopin` Goose<br />
With a Pierce-Arrow engine<br />
Runnin` hot and on the loose<br />
Came Number Five, The Gallopin` Goose <br />
<br />
`Twas a four-door auto-mobile<br />
On a dozen wheels of iron<br />
Sixteen feet of rockin` boxcar<br />
Spot-welded to her tail<br />
Loaded down with mercantile<br />
Ten bags a` high-grade ore<br />
Two mothers nursin` babies<br />
Seven miners an` the mail <br />
<br />
Up the side a` Sunshine Mountain<br />
By internal gas combustion<br />
Eight Pierce-Arrow pistons pullin`<br />
Fifteen thousand pounds a` lead<br />
At the snowshed on the summit<br />
The conductor said his prayers<br />
He declared a busted driveshaft<br />
On the pass at Lizard Head <br />
<br />
[Chorus]<br />
With a Pierce-Arrow engine<br />
Runnin` hot and on the loose<br />
Came the Rio Grande Southern<br />
The Gallopin` Goose<br />
With a Pierce-Arrow engine<br />
Runnin` hot and on the loose<br />
Came Number Five, The Gallopin` Goose <br />
<br />
[Musical interlude here.] <br />
<br />
Down the three-percent to Rico<br />
In the valley of Dolores<br />
They still talk about the Southern<br />
An` her flock of flyin` geese<br />
From the roundhouse at Ridgway<br />
To the depot at Durango<br />
All the tracks are gone for scrap iron<br />
And the ganders rest in peace <br />
<br />
Up the canyons south of Sawpit<br />
Past the red Cathedral spires<br />
`Cross the yellow mountain switchbacks<br />
And the rapids far below<br />
On the high and lofty trestles<br />
Near the fabled mines of Ophir<br />
In the silver San Juan Mountains<br />
There`s a legend in the snow <br />
<br />
[Chorus]<br />
With a Pierce-Arrow engine<br />
Runnin` hot and on the loose<br />
Came the Rio Grande Southern<br />
The Gallopin` Goose<br />
With a Pierce-Arrow engine<br />
Runnin` hot and on the loose<br />

(Chip Davis, Bill Fries)

On a cold November mornin`
Back in nineteen-thirty-seven
With an early snow a-fallin`
On the three-foot tracks at Ames
Came a mighty strange contraption
Known to trainmen as a motor
But to folks in Colorado
She was known by another name

Up the canyons south of Sawpit
Past the red Cathedral spires
`Cross the yellow mountain switchbacks
And the rapids far below
On the high and lofty trestles
Near the fabled mines of Ophir
In the silver San Juan Mountains
Came a goose a-plowin` snow

[Chorus]
With a Pierce-Arrow engine,
Runnin` hot and on the loose
Came the Rio Grande Southern
The Gallopin` Goose
With a Pierce-Arrow engine
Runnin` hot and on the loose
Came Number Five, The Gallopin` Goose

`Twas a four-door auto-mobile
On a dozen wheels of iron
Sixteen feet of rockin` boxcar
Spot-welded to her tail
Loaded down with mercantile
Ten bags a` high-grade ore
Two mothers nursin` babies
Seven miners an` the mail

Up the side a` Sunshine Mountain
By internal gas combustion
Eight Pierce-Arrow pistons pullin`
Fifteen thousand pounds a` lead
At the snowshed on the summit
The conductor said his prayers
He declared a busted driveshaft
On the pass at Lizard Head

[Chorus]
With a Pierce-Arrow engine
Runnin` hot and on the loose
Came the Rio Grande Southern
The Gallopin` Goose
With a Pierce-Arrow engine
Runnin` hot and on the loose
Came Number Five, The Gallopin` Goose

[Musical interlude here.]

Down the three-percent to Rico
In the valley of Dolores
They still talk about the Southern
An` her flock of flyin` geese
From the roundhouse at Ridgway
To the depot at Durango
All the tracks are gone for scrap iron
And the ganders rest in peace

Up the canyons south of Sawpit
Past the red Cathedral spires
`Cross the yellow mountain switchbacks
And the rapids far below
On the high and lofty trestles
Near the fabled mines of Ophir
In the silver San Juan Mountains
There`s a legend in the snow

[Chorus]
With a Pierce-Arrow engine
Runnin` hot and on the loose
Came the Rio Grande Southern
The Gallopin` Goose
With a Pierce-Arrow engine
Runnin` hot and on the loose
Came Number Five, The Gallopin` Goose
