lyrics:
Headin’ for the station with a pack on my back
And I’m tired of transportation at the back of the hack
I just love the rhythm of the clickety clack
And hear the whistle blowin' see the smoke from the stack
And pal around with democratic fellows named Mac
So take me right back to the track, jack

Choo–choo, choo–choo, ch’boogie
Woo–woo, woo–woo, ch’boogie
Choo–choo, choo–choo, ch’boogie
Take me right back to the track, jack

You reach your destination and alas and alack
You need some compensation to get back in the black
So take the morning paper from the top of the stack
And read the situation from front to back
The only job that’s open needs a man with a knack
So put it right back on the track, jack

Choo–choo, choo–choo, ch’boogie
I’m gonna settle down by the railroad track
Live the life o’riley in a beaten down shack
So when I hear a whistle I can peep thru the cracks
And watch the train rollin’ when it’s ballin’ the jack
I just love the rhythm of the clickety clack
So take me right back to the track, jack

Choo–choo, choo–choo, ch’boogie
