Chattanooga Choo Choo Songtext
von Glenn Miller and the Army Air Force Band

Hi there Tex, what you say?
Step aside partner, it′s my day
Bend an ear and listen to my version
Of really solid Tennessee excursion

Pardon me, boy
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 an' eggs in Carolina

When you the whistleblowing eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far
Shovel all the coal in
Gotta keep it rolling
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, Chattanooga) get aboard
(Chattanooga, Chattanooga) all aboard
(Chattanooga, Chattanooga)
(Chattanooga, Chattanooga)
Won't you choo-choo me home?
Chattanooga Choo-Choo
