Ray Charles - Chattanooga Choo Choo lyrics

[Verse] Hey there, pal, what 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 boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo? Yes Yes, Track 29! Boy you can give me a shine Can you afford to board, the 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 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 Got to keep it rolling Whoo Whoo Chattanooga there you are There's going to be, a certain party at the station Satin and Lace I used to call funny face She's going to cry Until I tell her that I'll never roam So Chattanooga Choo Choo Won't you choo choo me home Get aboard All aboard Chattanooga choo choo Won't you choo choo me home
