Hello railroad, is this the railroad? |
|
I want a one way ticket down to Tennessee |
|
I'm leaving immediately, Chattanooga, here I come |
|
Pardon me boy, is that the Chattanooga choo choo? |
|
Right on track 29, boy, you can give me a shine |
|
I can afford to board the Chattanooga choo choo |
|
I've, I've, 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 and eggs in Carolina |
|
When you hear the whistle blowing eight to the bar |
|
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far |
|
Shovel all the coal in, gotta keep it rolling |
|
Whoo, whoo, Chattanooga, there you are |
|
There's gonna be a certain party at the station |
|
In, in satin and lace, 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? |
|
Hey, there, boy, yes, yes, yes |
|
I'm a comin' back to Tennessee |
|
Hey, there, boy, yes, yes, yes |
|
I want a one way ticket on the |
|
Chattanooga choo choo train |
|
Hey, pardon me, boy |
|
Is that the Chattanooga choo choo choo choo? |
|
Right on track 29, my baby, I'm fine |
|
Boy, you can give me a shine |
|
Give me a very good shine |
|
There's gonna be a certain party at the station |
|
All dressed up in satin and lace, oh, what a funny face |
|
(I used to call funny face) |
|
I used to call her just a 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!? |
