Am Dm7 G

You know your mamma's good lookin' you're gonna eat a lot of her cookin'
|
Am Dm7 F
|
Sweet potato pie and green jello oh oh oh yeah
|
Am Dm7 G
|
Your daddy might not be rich but he ain't hangin' with the wicked witch
|
Am Dm7 F
|
So stick out your tongue and give it a go oh oh oh yeah

CHORUS
|
Am Dm7 G
|
Come on baby ride on the milk train Come on baby ride on the milk train
|
Come on baby ride on the milk train Come on baby ride on the milk train
|
Am Dm7 G F
|
Yeah ride ride ride
|
|
You know you got to get a ticket to chirp like Jiminy cricket
|
I'll burp after you lick it yeh (and it won't even cost you a buck)
|
Hey kiddo, get the function you're on the platform at the junction
|
And when you suck you know it doesn't suck (that's what we want now)
|
|
CHORUS REPEAT
|
G C F
|
The milk train is comin round any time of night or day yeh yeh
|
G C F
|
With two big headlights shining so you know the way
|
G G
|
Picking up steam rolling down the track
|
G G G
|
Squirtin' out juice and on the caboose. The brakeman's singin Yackety Yak
|
|
CHORUS REPEAT
|
|
Outside the cold wind is lashin'. The liquor store light is flashin'
|
The stock market Dow-Jones is crashin' down (but you won't lose a buck)
|
Hey kiddo, get the function you're on the platform at the junction
|
And when you suck you know it doesn't suck (that's what we want now)
|
|
CHORUS REPEAT
