- Now suppose you...

- I learned it at kindergarten.

Will you answer my question?

How did you get here?

- Oh, that?

- Yes, that.

Well...

- Nifty didn't have anything to do with it.

- Oh, so that's it.

All he did was to tell me which train to take

and lend me the money for the car fare

and tell me where to hide

so you wouldn't see me. That's all.

That's all. I told that guy definitely...

Do you realise the spot you've put me in?

I'm responsible for you.

Won't it be easier to be responsible

for me here than in Weehawken?

Yes, but people might get the idea that...

It'd be different if you were a kid,

but you're a grown girl.

- What can we do about it?

- Yeah, that's it.

You're here now

and I suppose I'll have to let you stay.

But only for a few days,

then you go to Nifty's aunt.

After all, I've got work to do. I can't go

skiing around the hills with you. I have to...

Good night!

- What's the matter?

- I forgot about rehearsal.

I bet I'll beat you.

Take another look, Nifty.

See if he's coming.

I can't locate the guy.

I don't know where he is.

- Stall for time.

- OK.

"Chattanooga Choo Choo."

Run it down again. Let's go. One, two...

(train noises)

(whistles)

Hi there, Tex

What you say?

Step aside, partner, it's my day

Bend and ear and listen to my version

Of a really solid Tennessee excursion

Pardon me, boy,

is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?

Yes, yes

Track 29

Boy, you can give me a shine

Can you afford to board

the Chattanooga Choo Choo?

I got my fare

And just a trifle to spare

You leave the Pennsylvania station

'bout a quarter to four

Read a magazine

and then you're in Baltimore

Dinner in the diner

Nothing could be finer

Than to have your ham and eggs

in Carolina

When you hear the whistle

blowing eight to the bar

Then you know

that Tennessee is not very far

Shovel all the coal in

Gotta keep it rollin'

Whoo, whoo

Chattanooga, there you are

There's gonna be

a certain party at the station

Satin and lace

I used to call funny-face

She's gonna cry

Until I tell her that I'll never roam

- So, Chattanooga Choo Choo

- Won't you choo-choo me home?

Chattanooga, Chattanooga...

- All aboard

- Chattanooga, Chattanooga...

- Get aboard

- Chattanooga, Chattanooga...

Chattanooga Choo Choo

Won't you choo-choo me home?

Chattanooga Choo Choo

- Pardon me, boys

- Yes, yes?

- Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?

- That's the Chattanooga Choo Choo

- On track 29

- 29?

- That's on the Tennessee line

- She said the Tennessee line

She means that she can afford...

I can afford to board

the Chattanooga Choo Choo

- What have you got in there?

- I've got my fare

- You say you have?
