[Verse 1]
When we got married back in nineteen forty-four
Weâd board that Silverliner below Baltimore
Trip to Virginia on a sunny honeymoon
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore
[Verse 2]
Weâd tip the porter for a place of our own
Then send a postcard to your mommy and dad back home
Mmm, it did something to you when youâd hear that âAll aboardâ
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore
[Chorus]
Woo-ee, woo-oo-oo-ee, woo-ee
Woo-ee, woo-oo-oo-ee, woo-ee
[Verse 3]
We had a daughter and you oughtta see her now
She has a boyfriend who looks just like my gal Sal
And when theyâre married they wonât need us anymore
Theyâll board an aeroplane and fly away from Baltimore
[Chorus]
Woo-ee, woo-oo-oo-ee, woo-ee
Woo-ee, woo-oo-oo-ee, woo-ee
[Verse 4]
When we got married back in nineteen fourty-four
Weâd board that Silverliner below Baltimore
Trip to Virginia on a sunny honeymoon
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore
[Verse 5]
La la la la-la la-la-la la la bye-bye
La la la la-la la-la-la la la donât cry
Mmm, it did something to you when youâd hear that âAll aboardâ
Nobody cares about the railroads anymore
[Outro]
