1
I swing my hammer to the metal on the northern railway
2
Always a movie playing in my head
3
A million movies starring you and me
4
Moonshine every night
5
Eating supper by the fire out in the clear moonlight
6
Ankles crossed, hands behind my head
7
Telling stories, singing songs about the west
8
I'm always thinking of you
9
Staring off down the railroad line
10
One sweet day i will see you
11
But i'll swing the hammer until
12
The empire builder brings me home
13
For two months and two odd weeks
14
Sometimes days go by in which nobody speaks
15
From illinois to washington
16
There ain't nothing but the hammer to the rail
17
One day when this track runs through
18
I'm gonna buy a new suit and come looking for you
19
Care free, you and me
20
We'll take the empire builder to the sea
21
And i'm always thinking of you
22
Staring off down the railroad line
23
One sweet day i will see you
24
But i'll swing the hammer until
25
The empire builder brings me home
26
