Texas and Pacific - Original |
I know you heard of the Chattanooga Choo Choo |
The Rock Island |
The New York Central |
The New Haven and Hartford |
The Pennsylvania |
The Missoura Pacific |
The Southern Pacific |
The Northern Pacific is terrific |
Oh, but Jack, you heard of the IC and the Santa Fee |
But you gotta take a ride on the TP |
I’m bidin' time aboard the Texas and Pacific |
Past big 'D' didn’t stay |
About a half an hour to be specific |
Cowtown’s just a short way |
Headin' southwest on the Texas and Pacific |
Big wheels clackin' around |
All the sights that I take in are quite terrific |
I’m west Texas bound |
Say, mister porter, I wired my gal |
She’s waitin' in El Paso for me |
Say mister porter, Wes Pecos no less |
My Stetson needs a dustin' and my pants need a press |
I guess I’ll have to find a half to tip the porter |
«15 minutes,» he says |
When I arrive we’ll take a trip across the border |
Honeymoon in Juarez |
'Cause the TP Special gets me there in much less |
Say mister porter, I wired my gal |
She’s waitin' in El Paso for me |
Say mister porter, Wes Pecos no less |
My Stetson needs a dustin' and my pants need a press |
I guess I’ll have to find a half to tip the porter |
«15 minutes,» he says |
When I arrive we’ll take a trip across the border |
Honeymoon in Juarez |
'Cause the TP Special gets me there in much less |
TP |
