Manhattan Transfer – CHOO CHOO CH’ BOOGIE

I’m 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 fellows named “Mac”

So, take me right back to the track, Jack!

Choo-Choo Choo-Choo Ch-Boo-gie

Woo-woo, Woo-woo Ch’ Boogie

Choo-Choo Choo-Choo-Ch-Boo-gie

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 mornin’ 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-Boo-gie

Woo-woo, Woo-woo Ch’ Boogie

Choo-Choo Choo-Choo Ch-Boo-gie

Take me right back to the track, Jack!

Gonna settle down by the railroad track

And live the life o’Riley in a beaten down shack

So when I hear a whistle I can peep thru the crack

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

For I just love the rhythm of the clickety clack

So take me right back to the track, Jack!

Choo-Choo Choo-Choo Ch-Boo-gie

Woo-woo, Woo-woo Ch’ Boogie

Choo-Choo Choo-Choo-Ch-Boo-gie

Take me right back to the track, Jack!

Repeat last chorus
