John Kander — Commencing in Chattanooga Reprise

Commencing in chattanooga Where did haywood go? Anyone see him escape? Commencing in chattanooga Where do you think he went? On the southern railroad line On the southern railroad line Haywood slipped past the devil As he looked the other way On the southern railroad line The devil's burning mad 'cause he's got hell to pay On the southern railroad line Haywood's headin' out for freedom And he's racin' down the track On the southern railroad line He's flyin' like a black bird Lookin' forward, never back On the southern railroad line Haywood hears the dogs a'barkin' As he crosses tennessee On the southern railroad line He's lookin' up and prayin' Singin' "lord, remember me." On the southern railroad line Haywood's livin' like a sultan And smokes a fine cigar On the southern railroad line Haywood's got his fingers In sylvia's cookie jar On the southern railroad line On the southern railroad line On the southern railroad line On the southern railroad line
