Choo Choo Ch'Boogie lyrics

Headin' for the station with a pack on my back

I'm tired of transportation in the back of a hack

I love to hear the rhythm of the clickety-clack

And hear the lonesome whistle, see the smoke from the stack

And pal around with democratic fellas named Mac

So take me right back to the track, Jack

Choo-choo, choo-choo ch'boogie

Woo-woo, woo-woo ch'boogie

Choo-choo, choo-choo ch'boogie

Take me right back to the track, Jack

You reach your destination, but alas and alack

You need some compensation to get back in the black

You take a morning paper from the top of the stack

And read the situations from the front to the back

The only job that's open needs a man with a knack

So put it right back in the rack, Jack

Choo-choo, choo-choo ch'boogie

Woo-woo, woo-woo ch'boogie

Choo-choo, choo-choo ch'boogie

Take me right back to the track, Jack

Gonna settle down by the railroad track

Live the life of Riley in the beaten down shack

So when I hear a whistle, I can peep through the crack

And watch the train a-rollin' when it's ballin' the jack

Well, I just love the rhythm of the clickety-clack

So take me right back to the track, Jack

Choo-choo, choo-choo ch'boogie

Woo-woo, woo-woo ch'boogie

Choo-choo, choo-choo ch'boogie

Take me right back to the track, Jack

Take me right back to the track, Jack
