All aboard

Started off on a Friday night in a boxcar outside town

Somebody brought a banjo somebody passed the jug around

Them wheels got to turnin' couldn't tell you why or how

Now half of Harlan County's hangin' off the side right now

You can hear us comin' steel wheels poundin' on the track

One whistle scream and buddy there ain't no turnin' back

All aboard

This party is a freight train nobody's pullin' the cord

All aboard

Every county that we roll through we pick up a hundred more

When that horn blows you know here we go

Here we go

Perry County brought the barbecue Pike County brought the band

Boone rolled up with forty cousins and a cooler in each hand

Sheriff Dale set up a roadblock sawhorses on the track

Blew his whistle at a freight train and the freight train whistled back

You can hear us comin' ninety cars and gainin' speed

All aboard

This party is a freight train nobody's pullin' the cord

All aboard

Every county that we roll through we pick up a hundred more

When that horn blows you know here we go

End of the line people this train stops right

All aboard

Well look who's on the caboose now hat waved high drink in his hand

Sheriff Dale is hollerin' all aboard to beat the band

And here comes that horn again y'all know what that means

All aboard

This party is a freight train nobody's pullin' the cord

All aboard

Every county that we roll through we pick up a hundred more

When that horn blows you know here we go

This train ain't stoppin' for nothin' hammer down and let her roll

All aboard
