You leave the Pennsylvania Station 'bout a quarter to four,

Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore;

Dinner in the diner, nothing could be finer

Than to have your ham an' eggs in Carolina.
G                   D7             G       D7  G
When you hear the whistle blowin' eight to the bar,
G                   D7          G     D7  G
Then you know that Tennessee is not very far.
