Wayne Hancock ? Locomotive Joe
Well I know a Ccrazy cat that rides the train all day long
He?s got a gal in every town and he?s never alone
He says the FUnion Pacific always treats him Cright
He goes Gjoint jumpin? in a different town every Cnight.
He says Ccome on train my baby?s out there waitin?
I got a big date so don?t make me late
He Fhits the main drag just as hard as he can Cgo
They call him GLocomotive Joe he?s a railroad Ro Ro CRomeo.
When he Cgets to Fort Worth (I got on my boots and hat)
How bout Oklahoma City (I got my hair slicked back)
He Fhits each town and checks em like an old trot Cline
Well a Gsonofagun if he don?t get a bite each Ctime.
 C   F   C   G   CX2
Well I know a Ccrazy cat that rides the train all day long
He?s got a gal in every town and he?s never alone
He says the FUnion Pacific always treats him Cright
He goes Gjoint jumpin? in a different town every Cnight.
He says Ccome on train my baby?s out there waitin?
I got a big date so don?t make me late
He Fhits the main drag just as hard as he can Cgo
They call him GLocomotive Joe he?s a railroad Ro Ro CRomeo.
