On the Atchinson |
| Do you hear that whistle down the line? |
| I figure that it’s engine number forty-nine |
| She’s the only one that’ll sound that way |
| On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe See the old smoke risin 'round the bend |
| I reckon that she knows she’s gonna meet a friend |
| Folks around these parts get the time of day |
| From the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe Here she comes |
| Whoo hoo hoo hoo hoo |
| Hey Jim, you’d better get the rig |
| Whoo hoo hoo hoo hoo |
| She’s got a list of passengers that’s pretty big |
| And they’ll all want lifts to Brown’s hotel |
| 'Cause of lots of them been travelin' for quite a spell |
| All the way from Philadelphia |
| On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe |
| (All aboard!) |
| (All aboard!) |
| (Chuga-chuga-chuga-chuga, woo-woo) |
| (Chuga-chuga-chuga-chuga, woo-woo) |
| Let 'er rip, let 'er rip, Mr. Engineer |
| Gotta go, gotta go far away from here |
| While the man at the fire shovels on the coal |
| Stick your head out the cab, watch the drivers roll |
| See the towns and the roads go a-whizzin' by Fare thee well Laramie, Albuquerque high |
| Yesiree, here we are, goin' all the way |
| (Mustn't quit till we hit California) |
| (On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe) |
| (On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe) |
| (Here she comes, woo-woo) |
| Hey Jim, you’d better get the rig |
| (Whoo hoo hoo hoo hoo) |
| She’s got a list of passengers that’s pretty big |
| And they’ll all want lifts to Brown’s hotel |
| 'Cause of lots of them been travelin' for quite a spell |
| (All the way from Philadelphia) |
| On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe |
