Berlin Irving San Francisco Bound (13 Mar 1913) Lyrics

San Francisco Bound (13 Mar 1913) Lyrics

[1st verse:]
My little baby brother, sister and mother
All my cousins and my uncles and dad
Live in a happy, happy, little snappy, snappy
Little town where ev'rybody is glad
San Francisco town
That's where I am bound
I'm drawing closer, closer on a train and oh, sir
When I get there I'll be glad

[chorus:]
Oh, you sixty mile an hour choo choo hound
Rattle, rattle, rattle
'Cause I'm 'Frisco bound
You better hurry across the ground
Don't you dare to be slow
Go!
Oh, you sunny, all the money, honey coast
Oh, you Mammy, Uncle Sammy loves you most
Wake up, choo choo, roar and roar
Steam up, steam up, more and more
Rattle, rattle like you never did before
'Cause I'm San Francisco bound

[2nd verse:]
I've got a full lunch basket if you care to ask it
You can share it if you're going my way
I've got my choo choo ticket if you dare to pick it
From my pocket, there'll be murder to pay
San Francisco shores
Here's to you and yours
Your sunny sons and daughters live in sunny quarters
And I'll meet them all today
