Lyrics
Now his name is Stan, the Towerman
And he works from twelve to eight
Watchin' all his engines
Switch up all that freight
Makin' up those Highball trains
And gettin' them out on time
He's Stan The Man, The Towerman
And he's up there all the time
Tower to the Westbound
Do you hear me, boy
Tower to the Plank Road
He's shovin' 34
Now it's gettin' mighty foggy
And very hard to see
So when you shove that 34
watch your fenders, please
Then one night the Plank Road
Was switchin' on the lead
The Towerman said, there's lots of room
Up here in 33
The Foreman gave a highball
The throttle came out wide
And they shoved that 33
Into 86’s side
Now his name is Stan, the Towerman
And he works from twelve to eight
Watchin' all his engines
Switch up all that freight
Makin' up those Highball trains
And gettin' them out on time
He's Stan The Man, The Towerman
And he's up there all the time
Now the telephone broke silence
And the speaker's on the lead
The Towerman said, hold it, boy
You shoved out 33
Have the Foreman give me a call
And have a cup of tea
it will be a spell before the Eastbound
Can switch out 33
Now the hook it came from London
The Section men appeared
They worked all night to the cold, gray dawn
To get 86 out of here
Now I tell all you Foremen
when you're switchin' on the lead
You better send the Fieldman
For a walk up 33
Now his name is Stan The Towerman
And he works from twelve to eight
Watchin' all his engines
Switch up all that freight
Makin' up those highball trains
And gettin' them out on time
He's Stan The Man, The Towerman
And he's up there all the time
