<< Back to Johnny Cash Song List

Version 1 Version 2 Version 3
            C
Hey porter  hey porter would you tell me the time

                                             G7
How much longer will it be till we cross that Mason Dixon line

    C                                       F
At daylight would you tell that engineer to slow it down
 
                     C                    G7              C
Or better still just stop the train cause I want to look around 

 
 
Hey porter  hey porter what time did you say

                                      G7
How much longer will it be till I can see the light of day

            C                        F
When we hit Dixie will you tell that engineer to ring his bell

                             C         G7                 C
And ask everybody that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell


 
Hey porter  hey porter it's getting light outside

                                    G7
This ole train is puffing smoke and I have to strain my eyes

             C                   F
But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle please

              C                            G7                 C
Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves and I feel that southern breeze


 
Hey porter  hey porter please get my bags for me

                                  G7
I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee

             C                     F
Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream

             C                        G7          C
We're not so far from home so take it easy on the steam


 
Hey porter  hey porter please open up the door

                                                 G7
When they stop the train I want to get off first cause I can't wait no more

          C                               F
Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot and I didn't mind the fare

                 C                         G7                    C
I'm gonna sat my feet on southern soil and breathe that southern air
