Choo Choo Ch'boogie - Louis Jordan
Intro:
[G]
Verse 1:
[G] Headin' for the station with a pack on my back.
I'm tired of transportation in the back of hack
I [C] love to hear the rhythm of the clickity clack
And [G] hear the lonesome whistle, see the smoke from the stack
And [D] pal around with democratic fellows named Mac
So, [G] take me right back to the track, Jack!
|Chorus:
|[G] Choo choo, choo choo, ch'boogie
|[G7] Woo woo, woo oo, ch'boogie
|[C] Choo choo, choo choo, ch'boogie
|[D] Take me right back to the [G] track, Jack!
Verse 2:
You [G] reach your destination, but alas and alack
You need some compensation to get back in the black
You [C] take your morning paper from the top of the stack
And [G] read the situation from the front to the back
The [D] only job that's open needs a man with a knack So
[G] put it right back in the rack, Jack!
|Chorus:
|[G] Choo choo, choo choo, ch'boogie
|[G7] Woo woo, woo oo, ch'boogie
|[C] Choo choo, choo choo, ch'boogie
|[D] Take me right back to the [G] track, Jack!
Verse 3:
Go[G]nna settle down by the railroad track
Live the life of Riley in a beaten-down shack
So [C] when I hear a whistle I can peak through the crack
And [G] watch the train a rollin' when they're ballin' the jack
I [D] just love the rhythm of the clickity clack
So, [G] take me right back to the track, Jack!
|Chorus x2:
|[G] Choo choo, choo choo, ch'boogie
|[G7] Woo woo, woo oo, ch'boogie
|[C] Choo choo, choo choo, ch'boogie
|[D] Take me right back to the [G] track, Jack!
