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, boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo? (yes, yes) Track 29, boy you can gimme a shine Can you afford to board the Chattanooga Choo Choo? I 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 Than to have your ham 'n' 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 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's gonna cry until I tell her that I'll never roam So Chattanooga Choo-Choo, won't you choo-choo me home Chattanooga, Chattanooga All aboard (Chattanooga, Chattanooga) Get aboard (Chattanooga, Chattanooga) Chattanooga Choo-Choo, won't you choo-choo me home Chattanooga Choo-Choo
