I’m head-ed for the sta-tion
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
with a pack on my back,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
I’m tired of trans-port-a-tion
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
in the back of a hack,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
I love to hear the rhy-thm
7* 7* -6 -5 -3* 7* -6
of the click-e-ty-clack,
-5 -3* -6 6 -6 7*
And hear the lone-some whis-tle,
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
see the smoke from the stack,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
And pal a-round with dem-o-crat-ic
-7 -7* 7 6 5 -7* 7 6 5
Fel-las named Mac,
7 6 7 -7*
So take me right back to the track, Jack
-7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Choo choo, choo choo ch’boog-ie
7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -6 7
Whoo whoo, whoo whoo ch’boog-ie,
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7*
Choo choo, choo choo ch’boog-ie
7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -6 7
Take me right back to the track, Jack.

You reach your des-ti-na-tion
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
but a-las and a-lack!,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
You need some com-pen-sa-tion
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
to get back in the black,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
You take a morn-in’ pa-per
7* 7* -6 -5 -3* 7* -6
from the top of the stack,
-5 -3* -6 6 -6 7*
And read the sit-u-a-tions
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
from the front to the back,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
But, the on-ly job that’s o-pen
-7 -7 -7* 7 6 5 -7* 7
needs a man with a knack,
6 5 7 6 7 -7*
So put it right back in the rack, Jack.
-7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Choo choo, choo choo ch’boog-ie
7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -6 7
Whoo whoo, whoo whoo ch’boog-ie,
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7*
Choo choo, choo choo ch’boog-ie
7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -6 7
So you put it right back in the track, Jack.
-7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
I’m gon-na set-tle down
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7
be-side the rail-road track,
-6 -5 5 -6 -6 -7
And live the life o’Ril-ey
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6
in a beat-en down shack,
-5 5 -6 6 -6 -7
So when I hear a whist-le
7* 7* -6 -5 -3* 7* -6
I can peep thru the crack,
-5 -3* -6 6 -6 7*
And watch the train a-roll-in’ when
7* -7 -6 -5 5 -7 -6 -5
it’s ball-in’ the jack,
5 -6 6 -6 -7
For I just love the rhy-thm
-7 7* 7 6 5 -7* 7
of the click-e-ty-clack,
6 5 7 6 7 -7*
So take me right back to the track, Jack.
-7 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Choo choo, choo choo ch’boog-ie
7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -6 7
Whoo whoo, whoo whoo ch’boog-ie,
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7*
Choo choo, choo choo ch’boog-ie
7* 7* 7* 7* 7* -6 7
Take me right back to the track, Jack.
