Hello, Railroad!
Is this the railroad?
I want a one-way ticket down to Tennessee
I'm leavin' immediately
Chatanooga, here I come
Pardon me boy, it that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Right on track twenty-nine, Boy you can give me a shine
I can afford to board the Chattanooga Choo Choo
I've got my fare, and just a trifle to spare
You'll 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
Than 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, I used to call funny face
She gonna cry until I tell her that I'll never roam
So, Chatanooga Choo Choo, won't you choo-choo me home?
