Toot, toot, Tootsie, goodbye
Little  mama, don't cry
That  choo-choo train that takes me
Away from you, woman, no words can a-tell how a-sad it makes me

Kiss upon me, Tootsie, then
I  wish you'd do it again
Watch  for the mail, I ain't never fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail

Tootsie,  tootsie, goodbye
Honey, mama, don't cry


I'm singin' "Tootsie, Tootsie, goodbye"
Honey, please don't cry
That  old choo-choo train that takes me
Away from you no words can a-tell how sad it makes me

Kiss me, Tootsie, and then
I wish you'd do it all over again
Watch for the mail, Killer won't fail
If you don't get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail

Tootsie, tootsie, goodbye
Honey, baby, don't cry
You better watch for the mail, Jerry Lee won't fail
If you don't-a get a letter then you'll know I'm in jail

Tootsie, Tootsie, goodbye
Good-lookin' woman, don't cry
