Chattanooga Choo Choo

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

(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 Tennessee excursion

pardon me boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo-Choo?

(Yes, Yes, Track 29)

Hey would you give me a shine?

(Can you afford to board Chattanooga Choo-Choo?)

I got my fare

and just the travel to spare

you leave the Pennsylvania Station by a quarter to four

you read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore

dinner in a diner

nothing could be finer

and then to have a hammer in the Carolina

when you hear the whistle blowing into the bar

then you now the Tennessee is not very far

shove a all the coal in

gotta keep a rollin'

woo-woo Chattanooga there you are

there's gonna be

a certain party at the station

Satin and Lace (ooh)

I use to call funny face

(doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)

she's gonna cry

until I promise to never ever roll,

so Chattanooga choo-choo

won't you choo choo me home

(Chattanooga Chattanooga)

get aboard

(Chattanooga Chattanooga)

Chattanooga choo choo

won't you choo-choo me home

Chattanooga choo choo
