Barry Manilow – Chattanooga Choo Choo 0

(Hi there Tex, what do 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?
Track twenty-nine,
Boy, you can gimme 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 n'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
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 Choo-choo,
Won't you choo-choo me home.

Get aboard,
All aboard!
Chattanooga choo choo Choo-choo,
Won't you choo-choo me home.
