Hey porter, hey porter, could you tell me the time? How much longer will it be till we
that Mason-Dixon line? At daylight wouldn't you tell that engineer to slow it down, or
still just stop the train 'cause I wanna look around.

That's the main riff part, and that's what you play all the way through when he sings
for the solo in the middle:

Hey porter, hey porter, what time did you say? How much longer will it be till
I can see light of day? When we hit Dixie will you tell that engineer to ring
his bell, and ask that ain't asleep to stand right up and yell? Hey porter,
hey porter, i-'s getting light outside. This old train is puffin' smoke and
I have to strain my eyes. But ask that if he would blow his whistle please,
cause I smell frost on cotton leaves and I feel that southern breeze.
Hey porter, hey porter, please get my bags for me. I need by body to
tell me now that we're in Tennessee. Go tell that engineer to make
that lonesome whistle scream. We're not so far from home so take it
easy on the steam. Hey porter, hey porter, please up the door. When
they stop this train I'm gonna get off first 'cause I can't wait no
more. Tell that engineer I said thanks a lot and I didn't mind the
fare. I'm gonna set my feet on southern soil and breathe that southern air.
