[01:02.05] It's getting light outside [01:04.44] This old train is puffin' smoke and I have to strain my eyes [01:08.64] But ask that engineer if he will blow his whistle please [01:12.64] 'Cause I smell frost on cotton leaves [01:15.24] And I feel that Southern breeze [01:17.88] Hey, Porter! Hey, Porter! [01:20.04] Please get my bags for me [01:22.21] I need nobody to tell me now that we're in Tennessee [01:26.37] Go tell that engineer to make that lonesome whistle scream [01:30.42] We're not so far from home so take it easy on the steam [01:35.32] Hey Porter!
