When Lizzie departed her pain fair

No livver had more metropolitan

But now, oh, it's awful how shabby
she's grown,
Yet still she keeps chuggng along,
Going strong,
Cheerfully chugging along!
Her wheels and he + Tenders are
covered with muck
Of one dozen states, and she look S

But still. with her most undcniablc
pluck,
Miss Lizzie keeps chueging along.

There's mud and there's dust Ala

We carry much Georgian soil as ave

With mud Mississippi took care to
provide,
As Lizzie went chugging along.
From Louisiana there's sticky black
stuff,
There's Arkansas clay, which is
gluey enough,
But though half the roads have been
sticky or rough,
Miss Lizzie keeps chugging along.
The black mud of Texas, the dust of
her plains,

But still, though she's worn out
some three sets of chains,
Miss Lizzie keeps chugginG along,

She rattles and squeaks as each ne"

And yet on her journey she merrily
spins,
Miss Lizzie goes chugging along
No road is too rough and no mud is
too deep,
! From crag unto crag she will mer-

At times she can race, and Mt times
she must creep,

Yes, somehow she gets there, shcT
