Lyrics:

Tamp 'em up solid so they won't come down
Tamp 'em up solid so they won't come down
Thankfully you marry your railroad man
Every day'll be pay day, dollar bill in your hand
Tamp 'em up solid so they won't come down
Tamp 'em up solid so they won't come down

Mary and the baby laying in the bed
Thinking about the money that I ain't made
Tamp 'em up solid so they won't come down
Tamp 'em up solid so they won't come down

Captain called the water boy and the water boy laughed
Captain kicked the water boy yelling, 'yes, yes, yes'
So tamp 'em up solid, so they won't come down
Tamp 'em up solid, buddy, so they won't come down
