"Hello railroad, is this the railroad?
I want a one-way ticket down to Tennesse,
I'm leaving immediatelly,
Chattanooga here I come.."

Pardon me, boy
Is that the Chattanooga choo choo?
Right, oh, track twenty-nine
Boy, you can gimme a shine!
I can afford
to board a 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 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 it rollin'
Woo, woo, Chattanooga there you are.

There's gonna be
a certain party at the station,
mm, mm, 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?

div improvisationer....

Chattanooga choo choo
Won't you choo-choo me home?
