Engine Engine #9 - Roger Miller

Engine, Engine No. 9, coming down the railroad line

How much farther back did she get off?

Old brown suitcase that she carried, I’ve looked for it everywhere

It just ain’t here among the rest and I’m a little upset

Yes, tell me Engine, Engine No. 9, coming down the railroad line

I know she got on in Baltimore

A hundred and ten miles ain’t much distance, but

It sure do make a difference, I don’t think she loves me anymore

I warned her of the dangers, don’t speak to strangers

If by chance she find new romance, warmer lips to kiss her

Arms to hold her tighter, stirring new fires inside her

How I wish that it was me instead of he that stands beside her

Engine, Engine No. 9, coming down the railroad line

I know she got on in Baltimore

A hundred and ten miles ain’t much distance

But it sure do make a difference, I don’t think she loves me anymore

No, I don’t think she loves me anymore

I don’t think she loves me anymore
