Berlin Irving Down In Chattanooga (21 Nov 1913) Lyrics

Down In Chattanooga (21 Nov 1913) Lyrics

[1st verse:] 
Goodbye, I'm leaving town 
I've sent my luggage down 
To the railway station 
I've had my vacation 
Before I go away 
This much I want to say 
I would like to have you call on me someday

[chorus:] 
When you're down in Tennessee 
Stop at Chattanooga 
Stop at Chattanooga 
Don't forget to call on me 
Down in Chattanooga 
Down in Chattanooga 
Accept my invitation 
You can make yourself at home 
I'll meet you at the station 
With a "Giddyap, Giddyap, Napoleon" 
You'll find hospitality 
Down in Chattanooga 
Down in Chattanooga 
You're just as welcome as you can be 
You'll find a menu, a menu 
With a lot of things to eat upon it when you 
Come to Chattanooga 
Chattanooga, Tennessee 

[2nd verse:] 
What's mine you'll find is yours 
My folks keep "Open Doors" 
Anyone who will come 
Is entirely welcome 
And you'll be glad to stay 
Where healthy chickens lay 
Sixty cents-a-dozen eggs the livelong day
