Marty Stuart - Hey Porter Lyrics

Align:    
  • Written by John R. Cash
  • Hey Porter, hey Porter, would you tell me the time
  • How much longer will it be 'til we cross that Mason-Dixon line
  • When we hit Dixie would you tell that engineer to ring his bell
  • And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell
  • Hey Porter, hey Porter, what time did you say
  • How much longer will it be 'til I can see the light of day
  • When we hit Dixie would you tell that engineer to slow it down
  • Better still just stop the train 'cause I'd like to look around
  • Hey Porter, hey Porter, it's gettin' light outside
  • This old train is puffin' smoke and I have to strain my eyes
  • But ask that engineer if he would blow his whistle please
  • I smell frost on cotton leaves and I feel that southern breeze
  • Hey Porter, hey Porter, get my bags for me
  • I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee
  • Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream
  • We're gettin' close to home so take it easy on the steam
  • Hey Porter, hey Porter, please open up the door
  • When they stop this train, I'm gonna get off first 'cause I can't wait no more
  • Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot and I didn't mind the fair
  • Gonna set my feet on southern soil and breathe that southern air
  • Hey Porter, hey Porter, would you tell me the time
  • How much longer will it be 'til we cross that Mason-Dixon line
  • When we hit Dixie would you tell that engineer to ring his bell
  • Ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell
