There`s a fairground down in Chattanooga
Where a kiddy train runs up and down the track
There`s an old black hound that always hangs around
And he chases that train down and back
And I`ve been chasing you like that Chattanooga dog
Even though I know you don`t care
I`ve been chasing you like that Chattanooga dog
And it ain`t gonna get me anywhere
[ banjo ]
Well I`m thinking that you`re like that old train anybody gets a ticket to ride
I`m like that pup I won`t ever give up I`d do anything to be by your side
I`ve been chasing you like that Chattanooga dog...
[ banjo ]
Every day when the kids come for playing to ride that ole kiddy train once more
There`s that old faithful hound with his tongue hangin` down
And runnin` till his feet get sore
And I`ve been chasing you like that Chattanooga dog...
