I've been working on the railroad
All the livelong day
I've been working on the railroad
Just to pass the time away

Can't you hear the whistle blowing?
Rise up so early in the morn
Can't you hear the captain shouting?
"Dinah, blow your horn!"

Dinah, won't you blow?
Dinah, won't you blow?
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?
Dinah, won't you blow?
Dinah, won't you blow?
Dinah, won't you blow your horn?

Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah
Someone's in the kitchen I know
Someone's in the kitchen with Dinah
Strumming on the old banjo, and singing

"Fie, fi, fiddly-i-o
Fie, fi, fiddly-i-o
Fie, fi, fiddly-i-o,"
Strumming on the old banjo
