Billy Bragg & The Blokes Lyrics

"1 2 3 4"
(originally by Woody Guthrie)

Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Chooka-choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
A, B, C, D, E, F, G
Hoodoo, voodoo, seven, twenty-one, two
Haystack, hoe-stack, hey do the hoe-ta
High boga, low joker, ninety-nine, a zero
Sidewalk, streetcar, dance a goofy dance

Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
A, B, C, D, E, F, G
Blackbird, blue jay, one, two, three, four
Trash-stack, jump back, E, F, G
Big man, little man, fat man, skinny man
Grasshopper, green snake, hold my hand

Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo

Mama cat, tom cat, diapers on the clothesline
2, 4, 6, 8, run and hide
Crazy man, lazy girl, pony on a tin can
I'll be yours and you'll be mine

Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo-choo
Choo-choo, choo-choo, chooka-chooka, choo

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
A, B, C, D, E, F, G
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
A, B, C, D, E, F, G
