Song lyrics
The City Council met last night, the vote was four to three 
To tear the home town depot down and build a factory 
To take that stretch of history and tear it off the map 
And to take old engine number nine and turn it into scrap 

Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
If you can't afford a quarter 
then you ought to give a dime 
If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line 

Oh I could tell you stories of the glories of that train 
Of the 49'er miners and the time old Jesse James 
Stole a thousand golden nuggets in that great train robbery 
And when old Abe Lincoln rode with Tad upon his knee 

Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
If you can't afford a quarter 
then you ought to give a dime 
If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line

Just twenty thousand quarters and forty thousand dimes 
And we'll ride again to glory on that old Blue Water Line 
We'll have William Jennings Bryant 
stokin' coal on number nine 
So reach into your pockets boys for the old Blue Water Line

Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
If you can't afford a quarter 
then you ought to give a dime 
If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line

If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line

Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line 
Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line...
