Artist/Band: Asleep At The Wheel Tabs
Song: Choo Choo Ch Boogie Tab
(These are pretty much the lyrics to the Louis Jordan version, and I
would assume the same for Asleep at the wheel). I don't know what key
you're doing it in, so I'm including position numbers.
CHOO CHOO CH' BOOGIE
I
Heading for the station with a pack on my back
Tired of transportation in the back of a hack
IV
I love to hear the rhythm of the clickety clack
I
And hear the lonesome whistle, see the smoke from the stack
V
Pal around with Democratic fellows named Mack
I
So, Take me right back to the track, Jack
CHORUS
IV
Choo choo, choo choo ch' boogie
I
Woo woo, woo woo ch' boogie
IV
Choo choo, choo choo ch' boogie
V I
Take me right back to the track, Jack
VERSE 2
You reach your destination, but alas & alack
You need some compensation to get back in the black
You take the 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
(chorus again)
VERSE 3
Well I'm gonna settle down by the railroad track
And lead the life of Riley in a beaten down shack
And when I hear the whistle I can peep through the crack
And see the train a' rollin' while she's ballin' the jack
I just love the rhtyhm of the clickety clack
So take me right back to the track
Craig Evans (Burnt Taters)
