Chatanooga Choo Choo


Pardon me, boy. Is that the Chatanooga choo choo?
Track twenty-nine, boy, you can give me a shine
Can you afford to board the Chatanooga choo choo?
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, nothin' could be finer
Than to have your ham and eggs in Carolina

When you hear the whistle blowing eight to the bar
Then you'll know that Tennessee is not very far
Shovel all the coal in. Got to keep it rollin'.
Woo, woo, Chatanooga! There you are!

There's gonna be a certain party at the station:
Satin and lace, I used to call funny face.
She's gonna cry until I tell her that I'll never roam,
So Chatanooga choo choo, won't you choo choo me home?
