Lyrics

I've been working on the railroad,

(Bb)all the livelong (F)day.

I've been working on the railroad,

just to (G7)pass the time (C7)away.

Can't you hear the whistle (F)blowin'?

(Bb)Rise up so early in the (A)morn.

(Bb)Can't you (G7)hear the captain (Bbm)shouting,

(F)"Dinah, blow (C7)your (F)horn!"

Dinah, won't you blow,

(Bb)Dinah, won't you (G)blow,

(C)Dinah, won't you (C7)blow your (F)horn?

Dinah, won't you blow,

(Bb)Dinah, won't you (G)blow,

(C)Dinah, won't you (C7)blow your (F)horn?

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah.

Someone's in the kitchen I (C)know.

(F)Someone's in the kitchen with (Bb)(Bdim7)Dinah,

(C7)strummin' on the old (F)banjo and singin',

"Fee, fi, fiddleeeio, fee, fi, (C)fiddleeeio.

(F)Fee, fi, (Bdim7)fiddleeeio," (C7)strummin' on the old (F)banjo.
