Cabin Essence

Light the lamp and fire mellow

Cabin essence timely hello

Welcomes the time for a change

Lost and found, you still remain there

You'll find a meadow filled with grain there

I'll give you a home on the range

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

Who ran the iron horse?

I want to watch you windblown facing

Waves of wheat for your embracing

Folks sing a song of the grange

Nestle in a kiss below there

The constellations ebb and flow there

And witness our home on the range

Who ran the iron horse? (Truck driving man do what you can)

Who ran the iron horse? (High-tail your load off the road)

Who ran the iron horse? (Out of night-life-it's a gas man)

Who ran the iron horse? (I don't believe I gotta grieve)

Who ran the iron horse? (In and out of luck)

Who ran the iron horse? (With a buck and a booth)

Who ran the iron horse? (Catchin' on to the truth)

Who ran the iron horse? (In the vast past, the last gasp)

Who ran the iron horse? (In the land, in the dust, trust that you must)

Who ran the iron horse? (Catch as catch can)

Have you seen the grand coolie workin' on the railroad?

Have you seen the grand coolie workin' on the railroad?

Have you seen the grand coolie workin' on the railroad?

Over and over

The crow cries uncover the cornfield

Over and over

The thresher and hover the wheat field

Over and over

The crow cries uncover the cornfield

Over and over

The thresher and hover the wheat field

Over and over

The crow cries uncover the cornfield

Over and over

The thresher and hover the wheat field
