[00:06.739]The City Council met last week, the vote was four to three
[00:12.448]To burn the hometown depot down and build a factory
[00:17.983]To take that stretch of history and tear it off the map
[00:23.467]To melt old engine number nine and turn it into scrap
[00:29.763]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[00:35.255]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[00:40.206]If you can’t afford a quarter then you ought to give a dime
[00:46.250]If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line
[00:53.806]Oh I could tell you stories of the glories of that train
[00:59.579]Of the 49’er miners and the time old Jesse James
[01:04.832]Stole a thousand golden nuggets in that Great Train Robbery
[01:10.871]And when old Abe Lincoln rode with Tad upon his knee
[01:16.905]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[01:22.666]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[01:27.374]If you can’t afford a quarter then you ought to give a dime
[01:33.910]If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line
[01:40.982]Just twenty thousand quarters and just forty thousand dimes
[01:46.738]And we’ll ride again to glory on the old Blue Water Line
[01:51.729]We’ll have William Jennings Bryant stoking coal on number nine
[01:58.016]So dig inside your pockets for the old Blue Water Line
[02:04.059]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[02:09.814]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[02:15.257]If you can’t afford a quarter then you ought to give a dime
[02:20.987]If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line
[02:27.266]If everybody gave then we could save the Blue Water Line
[02:33.555]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
[02:39.342]Blue Water, Blue Water, Blue Water Line
