Old Smoky Locomotion - Little Eva

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' stop (s)

(On top of Old Smokey) 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 their fiddles) 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) 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
