Down in Chattanooga



[1st verse:] Good-bye, I'm leaving town I've sent my baggage down To the railway station I've had my vacation Before I go away This much I want to say I would like to have you call on me someday

[Refrain:] When you're down in Tennessee Stop at Chattanooga Stop at Chattanooga Don't forget to call on me Down in Chattanooga Down in Chattanooga

Accept my invitation You can make yourself at home I'll meet you at the station With a "giddy-ap, giddy-ap" Napoleon You'll find hospitality Down in Chattanooga Down in Chattanooga

You're just as welcome as you can be You'll find a menu, a menu With a lot of things you can eat up on it When you come to Chattanooga, Chattanooga, Tennessee

[2nd verse:] What's mine you'll find is yours My folks keep open doors Anyone who will come is entirely welcome And you'll be glad to stay Where happy chickens lay Sixty cents a dozen eggs The live long day.
