[00:05.670] Hey porter!
[00:06.350] Hey porter!
[00:07.470] Would you tell me the time?
[00:09.840] How much longer will it be till we cross that Mason Dixon Line?
[00:13.710] At daylight would ya tell that engineer to slow it down?
[00:16.580]
[00:17.700] Or better still, just stop the train,
[00:19.820] Cause I wanna look around.
[00:21.350]
[00:22.780] Hey porter!
[00:23.600] Hey porter!
[00:25.170] What time did you say?
[00:26.920] How much longer will it be till I can see the light of day?
[00:30.790] When we hit Dixie will you tell that engineer to ring his bell?
[00:33.720]
[00:34.610] And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell.
[00:39.600]
[00:56.520] Hey porter!
[00:57.330] Hey porter!
[00:58.450] It's getting light outside.
[01:00.510] This old train is puffin' smoke, and I have to strain my eyes.
[01:03.630] But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle please.
[01:08.250] Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves and I feel that Southern breeze.
[01:13.550] Hey porter!
[01:14.300] Hey porter!
[01:15.310] Please get my bags for me.
[01:17.340] I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee.
[01:21.210] tell Go that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream,
[01:23.890]
[01:25.280] We're not so far from home so take it easy on the steam.
[01:29.960]
[01:47.210] Hey porter!
[01:47.890] Hey porter!
[01:48.890] Please open up the door.
[01:50.830] When they stop the train I'm gonna get off first
[01:53.070] Cause I can't wait no more.
[01:54.750] Tell that engineer I said thanks alot, and I didn't mind the fare.
[01:58.620] I'm gonna set my feet on
[02:00.000] Southern soil and breathe that Southern air.
