(Hi there Tex, what you say) |
|
Step aside partner, it's my day |
|
Bend an ear and listen to my version |
|
(Of a really solid Tennesse excursion) |
|
Pardon me, boy |
|
Is that the Chattanooga choo choo? |
|
(Yes yes track twenty-nine) |
|
Boy, you can gimme a shine |
|
(Can you afford |
|
To board the Chattanooga choo choo?) |
|
I've got my fare |
|
(And just a trifle to spare) |
|
You leave the Pennsylvania Station 'bout a quarter to four |
|
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore |
|
Dinner in the diner, nothing could be finer |
|
(Then to have your ham an' eggs in Carolina) |
|
When you hear the whistle blowin' eight to the bar |
|
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far |
|
Shovel all the coal in, gotta keep it rollin' |
|
(Woo, woo, Chattanooga there you are) |
|
There's gonna be |
|
A certain party at the station |
|
Satin and lace |
|
(doo doo) |
|
I used to call |
|
"Funny Face" |
|
She's gonna cry |
|
Until I tell her that I'll never roam |
|
(So Chattanooga choo choo) |
|
Won't you choo-choo me home? |
|
(Chattanooga Chattanooga) |
|
Get aboard |
|
(Chattanooga Chattanooga) |
|
All Aboard |
|
(Chattanooga Chattanooga) |
|
(Chattanooga choo choo) |
|
Won't you choo-choo me home? |
|
(Chatanooga Choo Choo) |
