Pardon me boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
All aboard track 29 and you can give me a shine
Can you afford to board the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
I've got my fare and just a triffle to spare

You leave the Pennsylvania station 'bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the dinner, nothing could be finer
Then 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
Shuffle all the coal in gotta keep it rollin'
Whoo, whoo 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 when I tell her that I'll never roam
So Chattanooga Choo Choo, won't you choo choo me home?

All aboard, get aboard
Chattanooga Choo Choo
Wont you choo choo me home?

You leave the Pennsylvania station 'bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the dinner, nothing could be finer
Then 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
You shuffle all the coal an' gotta keep it rollin'
Whoo, whoo Chattanooga there you are
