i got up in the mornin’ when my sleep was done
and i felt that cheery chattanooga sun
and i thanked the lord above i was still alive
as i waited for the 6:05

commencing in chattanooga
chugga chugga
chugga chugga

and it chugga chugga-ed in and i said there you are
as i scrambled in the old box car
and i settled back believin’ that the world was fine
i was travelin’ on the southern line

and if the pennsylvania calls
just say you want your money back
and if the new york central’s on the phone
tell ’em they’re way off track

and you can take your santa fe
and you can take your old rock island line

and if the new york central’s on the phone
tell ’em they’re way off track

commencing in chattanooga…

spoken:
far away places, they’re in my bones! i know all the states
southeast to georgia. down to pensacola. north to knoxville
west to arkansas. and straight on to shreveport
i know the train schedules. when the freights leave. when they arrive
i can light a buck in the wind on top of a movin’ box car
i am free! i am free! i am free!

sung:
there ain’t a soul can hold me back
cause i am just as free as air
as long as i got legs and train got wheels
i could arrive me anywhere

and if the lord above comes down
and asks you where the h-ll i am
just answer no one knows where haywood goes
cause i’m a box car baby lamb

commencing in chattanooga
commencing in chattanooga
on the southern railroad line

spoken:
why’s this train slowin’ down andy?

this train ain’t supposed to stop til memphis

we a long way from memphis
