Old Smokey Loco Motion

Old Smokey Loco Motion - Johnny Hartman

On top of old smokey

It was quiet before

But since they learned the loco-motion

It ain't quiet no more

Well everybody you see there

Has a smile on his face

'Cause since they learned the loco-motion

It's a real swingin' place

Well every friday night now

They have a record hop

And it ain't 'til monday morning

That the dancin' stops

On top of old smokey

It was quiet before he was quiet before

But since they learned the loco-motion

But since they learned the loco-motion

It ain't quiet no more he ain't quiet no more

They threw away them fiddles

And their honkey guitars and their honky guitars

Now they even have fan clubs now they even have fan clubs

At all the record stores at all the record stores

On top of old smokey baby

Was smokey before well do you hear what I say

And let me tell you old smokey

And let me tell you old smokey

Ain't honky no more it ain't a honky no more

On top of old smokey

Was smokey before oh hear what I say

And let me tell you old smokey

And let me tell you old smokey

Ain't honky no more and that's a natural fact

On top of old smokey

Was honky before he was a honky before

And let me tell you old smokey oh yeah baby
