Lyrics
Said the busy woman to the lazy man "Tell me honey if you think you can
Get this engine runnin', get it on the line, bring it to my station, make it home on time
Can we work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll
Why don't we work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll"
Benny Goodman said to Gunga Din he said "Gunga bubbie stop your buglin'
'Cause the party's over man they've gone on home
It's just you, me, and Dorsey on his slide trombone
Why don't we work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll
C'mon let's work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll
Tell the man to fire up the boiler
Got lots o' loonies for the jukebox baby
Lady Right is meeting me tonight
Somewhere around the bend
Said the little baby to his mama dear he said " Tell me Mama who's the baby here
C'mon let's get crackin' let's get on the road
'Cause I ain't like Daddy no I ain't some heavy load
Come on let's work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll
Why don't we work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll
C'mon let's work up a little bit o' steam make this freight train roll
