Hey Porter hey Porter would you tell me the time

How much longer will it be 'til we cross that Mason-Dixon line

When we hit Dixie would you tell that engineer to ring his bell

And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell

Hey Porter hey Porter what time did you say

How much longer will it be 'til I can see the light of day

When we hit Dixie would you tell that engineer to slow it down

Better still just stop the train 'cause I'd like to look around

Hey Porter hey Porter it's gettin' light outside

This old train is puffin' smoke and I have to strain my eyes

But ask that engineer if he would blow his whistle please

I smell frost on cotton leaves and I feel that southern breeze

Hey Porter hey Porter get my bags for me

I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee

Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream

We're gettin' close to home so take it easy on the steam

Hey Porter hey Porter please open up the door

When they stop this train I'm gonna get off first 'cause I can't wait no more

Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot and I didn't mind the fair

Gonna set my feet on southern soil and breathe that southern air
