Buddy Better Get On Down the Line Songtext
von The Kingston Trio

Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes ninety-seven
Makin' up some time

Buddy, this is ninety-seven at your back
Got a ton of coal poured down the stack
Here comes ninety-seven
Runnin' down the track

Hey, hey, pretty baby, hey, hey
Baby, now don't get in my way
When I'm in town, you call me sugar, honey
When I'm gone, just run around and play

Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes ninety-seven
Comin' in on time


Met a lot of weather early today
Makin' up an hour and a quarter delay
Here comes ninety-seven
Roarin' all the way

Roll on, pretty baby, roll on
You know you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You mess around too long and now I'm leavin'
Bye-bye, adios, farewell, so long

Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes ninety-seven
Makin' up some time

Buddy, this is ninety-seven at your back
Got a ton of coal poured down the stack
Here comes ninety-seven
Runnin' down the track

Buddy, better get on down the line
Buddy, better get on down the line
Here comes ninety-seven
Makin' up some time


Buddy, this is ninety-seven at your back
Got a ton of coal poured down the stack
Here comes ninety-seven
Runnin' down the track
