Verse
Roll on down the line Big wheels rollin' right on time Hear that whistle blowin' Hear that engine roar and whine Take care of my baby Ridin' on that Southern Streamline
Bridge
Well, I got me a letter this mornin' Just about the break of day Bluebird ringin' my doorbell Rollin' my blues away I said, Honey, we're goin' steppin' Long about Saturday night We're headed down to the station Ev'rything'll be all right
Verse
Honey, what's that sound? Big wheels rollin' homeward bound See that smokestack sparkin' Lightin' up the purple sky Take care of my baby Ridin' on that Southern Streamline

Verse
Mama, I'm on fire Old flame, sweet desire Comin' on the midnight Honey, let your little light shine Rollin' steel and thunder Ridin' on that Southern Streamline Take care of my baby Ridin' on that Southern Streamline
