Pardon me, boy

Is this the Chattanooga choo choo

Track twenty-nine

Boy, you can give me a shine

I can afford

To board a Chattanooga 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

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 a-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's gonna cry

Until I tell her that I'll never roam

So Chattanooga choo choo

Won't you choo-choo me home

Chattanooga choo choo

Won't you choo-choo me home
