Lyrics (1992)[]
Mr, Munch: I've been working on the railroad
All the live-long 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?
Jasper: I've been working on the railroad
All the live-long day.
Helen: I've been working on the railroad
Just to pass, to pass the time away.
Pasqually: Don't you hear the whistle blowing,
Rise up so early in the morn;
Munch: Can't you hear the captain shouting,
"Dinah, blow your horn!"
Jasper: Dinah, won't you blow,
Pasqually: Dinah, won't you blow,
Helen: Dinah, won't you blow, your horn?
Munch: Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow,
Dinah, won't you blow, your horn?
