Hey porter! Hey porter! |
| [00:07.57] |
Would you tell me the time? |
| [00:09.69] |
How much longer will it be 'til we cross that Mason Dixon Line? |
| [00:13.72] |
At daylight would ya tell that engineer to slow it down? |
| [00:17.39] |
Or better still, just stop the train |
| [00:19.67] |
Because I want to look around |
| [00:21.91] |
|
| [00:23.13] |
Hey porter! Hey porter! |
| [00:24.88] |
What time did you say? |
| [00:26.63] |
How much longer will it be 'til I can see the light of day? |
| [00:30.66] |
When we hit Dixie will you tell that engineer to ring his bell? |
| [00:34.89] |
And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell |
| [00:39.10] |
|
| [00:56.26] |
Hey porter! Hey porter! |
| [00:58.26] |
It's getting light outside |
| [01:00.17] |
This old train is puffing smoke |
| [01:02.36] |
And I have to strain my eyes |
| [01:04.19] |
But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle please |
| [01:08.11] |
'Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves |
| [01:10.26] |
And I feel that Southern breeze |
| [01:12.22] |
|
| [01:13.47] |
Hey porter! Hey porter! |
| [01:15.39] |
Please get my bags for me |
| [01:17.02] |
I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee |
| [01:20.94] |
Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream |
| [01:24.98] |
We're not so far from home |
| [01:26.89] |
So take it easy on the steam |
| [01:29.20] |
|
| [01:47.06] |
Hey porter! Hey porter! |
| [01:48.61] |
Please open up the door |
| [01:50.53] |
When they stop the train I'm going to get off first |
| [01:52.81] |
Because I can't wait no more |
| [01:54.80] |
Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot |
| [01:56.83] |
And I didn't mind the fare |
| [01:58.55] |
I'm going to set my feet on Southern soil |
| [02:00.54] |
And breathe that Southern air |
