lyrics

Gonna catch a train
Catch me a train
Catch me a train that's headed down south.
I'm goin' to Chattanooga to see my gal,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon
Goin' to Chattanooga to see Emmy Lou,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon.

If that train don't come.
Train don't come.
I'll catch me a bus that's headed down south.
I'm goin' to Chattanooga to see my gal,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon
Goin' to Chattanooga to see Emmy Lou,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon.

If that bus don't come.
Bus don't come.
I'll get out on the road and stick out my thumb.
I'm goin' to Chattanooga to see my gal,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon
Goin' to Chattanooga to see Emmy Lou,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon.

If I can't hitch a ride.
Can't hitch a ride.
I'll wear out the soles of my shoes headed south.
I'm goin' to Chattanooga to see my gal,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon
Goin' to Chattanooga to see Emmy Lou,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon.

Here comes that train.
Here comes that train.
The train that's gonna take me down south.
I'm goin' to Chattanooga to see my gal,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon
Goin' to Chattanooga to see Emmy Lou,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon.

I'm goin' to Chattanooga to see my gal,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon
Goin' to Chattanooga to see Emmy Lou,
I'm goin' there soon, goin' there soon.

about

David Allen Thomas Cockeysville, Maryland

I was released in Philadelphia the same week as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. I stayed there as long as I could stand, then moved to Baltimore to go to art school. I have played guitar since I was 18. I taught myself. I did it to impress the ladies. It still doesn't work. So, I sing songs about drinking, trains and women, two of which I am familiar with. ... more
