[Verse 1]
Well, the big train keeps on rollin'
Rollin' on down the track
And the way she's movin', buddy
I don't believe she's comin' back
Well, the fireman's smokin' a big cigar
Sippin' Lafite Rothschild Bordeaux
And the engineer's so happy
He's just lettin' that whistle blow

[Chorus]
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin' on proud and fine
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin'
Down that long twin silver line

[Verse 2]
Well, she just blazed through Chicago
Nonstop to L.A. 
And the way she's steamin', buddy
You better not get in her way
She's got the finest, fastest pullin' twin diesеl
Ninety-three cars in tow
She's gonna be on timе all down the line
Come the rain, hail, sleet or snow
[Chorus]
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin' here right on time
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin'
Down that long twin silver line

[Bridge]
And she just passed through Chicago
Rollin' into Kansas, too
Rollin' into Denver
Doin' all she can do
And she hangs a big left in Salt Lake City
Southwest to the Nevada line
Rollin' into California
Right on time

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin' here right on time
She keeps a-rollin'
She keeps a-rollin'
Down that long twin silver line
