Get me to the train on time  here take this nickel make a dime
 Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave
 What is at the other end  I don't know another friend
 Another wife  another morning spent
 Listen  listen to the auctioneer
 Another engine  another engine

 We never wrote the reasons that I need explained
 Some things are givens, and others get away
 This time its for myself you call it what you may
 Okay, we won't say goodbye so long, so much more
 Listen to the auctioneer
 Another engine, another engine

 Listen to the bargain holler
 Listen to the barter holler
 Listen to the auctioneer

 Get me to the train on time here take this nickel make a dime
 Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave
 What is at the other end, an I don't know another friend
 Another wife, another morning spent
 Listen to the auctioneer
 Another engine, another engine

 Do I stand the bargain holler?
 Listen to the barter holler
 Listen to the auctioneer
