G                             C   G
Once upon a time there was an engineer
G                       A7      D
Drove a locomotive both far and near
  G                               C
Accompanied by a monkey who would sit on a stool
G             A7             D          G
Watchin' everything the engineer would move


G                              C      G
One day the engineer wanted a bite to eat
G                              A7       D
Left the monkey sittin' on the driver's seat
    G                           C
The monkey pulled the draw, the locomotive jumped the gun
        G               A7            D         G
And did ninety miles an hour down the main line run

     (Chorus)
     G               C        G
     Big locomotive, right on time
     G                      A7       D
     Big locomotive, comin' down the line
     G                      C
     Big locomotive, number ninety-nine
     G            A7          D       G
     Left the engineer with a worried mind
     
     [Intro lick]

G                          C                 G
The engineer called up the dispatcher on the phone
G                      A7             D
Tell him all about his locomotive was gone
G                       C
Get on the wire, switch operator to write
           G                A7         D      G
'Cause the monkey's got the main line sewn up tight

G                       C          G
Switch operator got the message in time
G                                          A7        D
Said, "There's a north bound livin' on the same main line
G                             C
Open up the switch, I'm gonna let him through the hole
           G                A7         D     G
'Cause the monkey's got the locomotive under control!"

(Chorus)
