Hey Porter |
Hey, Porter |
Hey Porter |
Would you tell me the time? |
How much longer will it be |
'Til we cross that Mason Dixon Line? |
At daylight would you tell that engineer to slow it down |
Or better still, just stop the train |
'Cause I want to look around |
Hey, Porter |
Hey, Porter |
What time did you say? |
How much longer will it be |
'Til I can see the light of day? |
When we hit Dixie will you tell that engineer to ring his bell |
And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell |
Hey, Porter |
Hey, Porter |
It's getting light outside |
This old train is puffin' smoke and I have to strain my eyes |
But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle please |
'Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves |
And I feel that Southern breeze |
Hey, Porter |
Hey, Porter |
Please get my bags for me |
I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee |
Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream |
We're not so far from home so take it easy on the steam |
Hey, Porter |
Hey, Porter |
Please open up the door |
When they stop this train I'm gonna get off first |
'Cause I can't wait no more |
Tell that engineer I say, |
Thanks a lot and I didn't mind the fare |
I'm gonna set my feet on Southern soil |
And breathe that Southern air |
