 I caught a train,  I met a dame.
 She was a hepster,  and a real gone dame.
 She was pretty,  from New York City.
 And we trucked  on down that ol' fair lane.
 With a "heave!"  and a "ho!"
 Well, I just  couldn't let her go.
 Get along, sweet  little woman, get along
 Get along, better  be on your way.
 Get along,  sweet little woman,
 Get along, better  be on your way.
 With a "heave!"  and a "ho!"
 Well, I just  couldn't let her go.
 Well, the train  kept a-rollin' all  night long.
 The train kept a-rollin' all  night long.
 The train  kept a-movin' all night long.
 The train  kept a-rollin' all  night long.
 With a "heave!"  and a "ho!"
 Well, I just  couldn't let her go.
 We made a stop  in Albuquerque.
 She must have thought  that I's a real  gone jerk.
 We got off the train  at El Paso,
 Our lovin'  was so good, Jack, I couldn't  let her go.
 Get along, sweet  little woman, get along
 Get along, sweet  little woman,
 Get along, better  be on your way.
 Get along,  sweet little woman,
 Get along, better  be on your way.
 With a "heave!"  and a "ho!"
 Well, I just  couldn't let her go.
 Well, the train  kept a-rollin' all  night long.
 The train kept a-rollin' all  night long.
 The train  kept a-movin' all night long.
 The train  kept a-rollin' all  night long.
 With a "heave!"  and a "ho!"
 Well, I just  couldn't let her go.
