I caught a train, I met a dame.
She was a hepster, and a real gone dame.
She was pretty, from New York City.
And we trucked on down that ol' fair lane.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go.
Get along, sweet little woman, get along
Get along, better be on your way.
Get along, sweet little woman,
Get along, better be on your way.
With a "heave!" and a "ho!"
Well, I just couldn't let her go.

We made a stop in Albuquerque.
She must have thought that I's a real gone jerk.
We got off the train at El Paso,
Our lovin' was so good, Jack, I couldn't let her go.

Get along, better be on your way.
