The Andrews Sisters - Chattanooga Choo Choo

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

Than 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 Tennesee.

Hey there boy, yes, yes, yes,

I want a one-way ticket on the

Chattanooga Choo Choo train.

Hey, pardon me boy, hmm-mmm,

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?
