Chorus
Here come number 5 she makes a mile a minute
Gee she run so fast this morning she broke the limit
Oh! goodness how that west bound
What I mean that West bound train does Run
Fireman said this morning to his engineer
Five P. M. we due in Frisco let’s leave from here
[Engineer looked at his watch and said If I’m alive
We’ll be in Frisco tomorrow morn sure at Five]
[Fireman turned on water and he shevel in some coal
Five o’clock this morning he got the engineer told]
Un goodness gee I’ve got the Frisco
I mean Frisco evening Fives
