Thanks for posting this song and doing such a good job with it. It's one of my favorite DAC songs. I always wanted to know the chords, and now I do. Thanks.

I didn't even know this song existed so thank you for posting it. I'm a huge NC&StL history buff, thanks to my great grandfather spending 65 years working for that line. I've seen the original hand written accident report for this crash in the museum in Cowan, TN I was amazed that it survived all the years in great condition.

Excellent job on it! I wish DAC had sang more songs like this, and less of the, well, you know.

I'm a hardcore leftie and an ardent DAC fan. You have to understand the context of those controversial songs. "n and a white woman" is making fun of white men who are afraid of such situations. if you don't believe me listen to all of "requiem for a harlequin." he calls for a black panther style revolution. "those other songs" are supposed to be humorous, as he wrote them with shel silverstein. DACis one of the greatest songwriters ever.
