Goodbye, I'm leaving town,
I've sent my baggage down,
to the railway station,
I've had my vacation,
before I go away.
This much I want to say,
I would like to have you
call on me one day

When you're down in Tennessee,
stop at Chattanooga
stop at Chattanooga
don't forget to call on me
down in Chattanooga,
down in Chattanooga,
accept my invitation,
you can make yourself at home,
I'll meet you at the station,
with a "Giddyap, Giddyap"
Napoleon, you'll find hospitality
down in Chattanooga,
down in Chattanooga,
you're just as welcome as you can be,
you'll find a menu, a menu,
with a lot of things to eat upon it,
when you come to Chattanooga,
Chattanooga, Tennessee.

What's mine you'll find is yours,
my folks keep "Open Doors"
anyone who will come,
is entirely welcome
and you'll be glad to stay,
where healthy chickens lay,
sixty cents a dozen eggs
the livelong day.
