2. Transport of Delight

3. Some talk of a Lagonda, Some like a smart MG, Or for bonny Army Lorry They’d lay them down and dee, Such means of locomotion Seem rather dull to us, The Driver and Conductor Of a London Omnibus. Hold very tight please, ting ting!

4. If you are lost in London And you don’t know where you are, You’ll hear my voice a calling “Pass further down the car!” And very soon you’ll find yourself Inside the terminus In a London Transport diesel engine Ninety Seven Horse Power Omnibus!

5. I stops when I’m requested, Although it spoils the ride So he can shout “Get aht of it! We’re full right up inside!” We don’t ask much for wages, We only want fair shares, So cut down all the stages, And stick up all the fares! If tickets cost ten pounds a piec e Why should you make a fuss?

6. It’s worth it just to ride inside That thirty foot long by ten foot wide, Inside that Monarch of the road, Observer of the highway code That big six wheeler, scarlet painted London Transport, Diesel Engine Ninety Seven Horse Power, Ninety Seven Horse Power Omnibus! Hold very tight please! Ting ting!

7. Clang clang clang went the trolley, Ding ding ding went the bell, Zing zing zing went my heart strings, From the moment I saw him I fell. Chug chug chug went the motor, Bump bump bump went the brake, Thump thump thump went my heart strings, When he smiled I could feel the car shake.

8. He tipped his hat and took a seat, He said he hoped he hadn’t stepped upon my feet, He asked my name, I held my breath, I couldn’t speak because he scared me to death!

9. Buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer, Plop plop plop went the wheels, “Stop stop stop!” went my heart strings, As he started to go then I started to know how it feels When the universe reels !

10. Pardon me boy, Is that the Chattanooga Choochoo? Track twenty nine Boy you can give me a shine. I can afford To board the Chattanooga Choochoo I’ve got my fare, And just a trifle to spare.

11. You leave the Pennsylvania Station ‘bout a quarter to four, Read a magazine and then you’re in Baltimore. Dinner in the diner, Nothing could be finer, Than to have your ham and eggs in Carolina.

12. When you hear the whistle blowing Eight to the bar, Then you know that Tennessee Is not very far, Shovel all the coal in, Got to keep it rolling, Whoo whoo Chattanooga there you are!

13. There’s going to be A certain party at the station, Satin and lace I used to call Funny Face. She’s gonna cry Until I tell her that I’ll never roam. So Chatanooga Choochoo Won’t you choo choo me home?

14. Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines, They go up diddly up up They go down diddly own down They enchant all the ladies And steal all the scenes With their up diddly up up And their down diddly own down.

15. Up! Down! Flying around, Looping the loop and defying the ground, They’re all frightfully keen, Those Magnficent Men In Their Flying Machines.

16. They can fly upside down With their feet in the air, They don’t think of danger They don’t really care. Newton would think He had made a mistake, To see those young men And the chances they take!

17. Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines They go up diddly up up, They go down diddly own down. They enchant all the ladies And steal all the scenes With their up diddly up up And their down diddly own down.

18. Would you like to ride In my beautiful balloon? Would you like to ride In my beautiful balloon? We could float among the stars together you and I. Or we can fly! Up, up and away in my beautiful My beautiful balloon!

19. The world’s a nicer place In my beautiful balloon, It wears a nicer face In my beautiful balloon, We can sing a song And sail along the silver sky, Or we can fly! Up, up and away in my beautiful, My beautiful balloon! Balloon, Balloon, Balloon, Balloon !
