Son House - Empire State Express lyrics
I went down to the station
I leaned against the door
I went down to the station 
I leaned against the door
You know I know the Empire State
Any time I hear her blow
Then I ask the depot agent
Let me ride, let me ride the blind
Oh depot agent
Please let me ride the blinds
He said I wouldn't mind it son 
But this empire state ain't mine
You know he said I have an Empire State 
She rides on eastern
She rides on eastern
Eastern time 
She runs on ester timeSon House - Empire State Express - http://motolyrics.com/son-house/empire-state-express-lyrics.html
She is the rollingest baby that runs on New York central line
Engineers 
I said wasn't me an old farmer
And I trust all engineers 
You know they took my women away
Yes the engineers blow the whistle 
The farmer only rung the bell 
You know my women is on board 
And she is waving back farewell 
I'm going to tell you all 
You on the train 
You on the train 
The train will do
And I'm gonna tell you all what I know the train will do 
It will take your women away 
And chop back smoke as you
