Choo Choo Ch'boogie

Take me right back to the track, Jack
Headin' for the station with a pack on my back
Tired of transportation in the back of a hack
I love to hear the rhythm of the clickety-clack
Hear the lonesome whistle, see the smoke from the stack
Pal around with democratic fellows 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 wake up in the morning feelin' sharp as a tack
You open up a sack, and then you gobble a snack
Then smoke a cigarette you didn't get in the pack
While takin' off your shoes, so you can empty the slack
Ain't nothing you can do about the dough that you lack
But beat it 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 in a lack
You need some compensation to get back in the black
You take a morning paper from the top of the stack
And read the situation 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

I'm gonna settle down beside the railroad track
And live the life of Riley in the beaten-down shack
So when I hear the 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
