Once upon a time there was an engineer. |
|
Drove a locomotive both far and near. Accompanied by a monkey that would sit on a stool Watching everything the engineer would do One day the engineer wanted a bite to eat, He left the monkey sitting on the driver's seat, The monkey pulled the throttle, the locomotive jumped the gun And did 80 miles an hour down the mainline run.
Big locomotive right on time, big locomotive coming down the line. Big locomotive no. 99, left the engineer with a worried mind.
The engineer called up the dispatcher on the phone, To tell him all about his locomotive was gone. Dispatcher got on the wire, switch operator to the right, Cause the monkey's got the main line sewed up tight. The switch operator got the message in time, Said there's a northbound eleven on the same main line, Open up the switch I'm gonna let him through the hole, Cause the monkey's got the locomotive under control.

2. I was so damned high the first time I heard that tune |
|
that I went into uncontrollable fits of laughter for about 20 minutes picturing it.
That was long ago, I've given up my old habits, but I still laugh when I hear that tune :)
