I've been a street car driver now about eleven years

And I know the old Toronto city well.

There's a whole lot of people who wait along the track
E7 A
For the signal from my clangin' trolley bell.

E7 A
Gotta sockit with my big Red Rattler.

Put the pole upon the wire now and open up the switch,
A E7 A
It's time to get old rattle sparkin' through
A A7 D
She's red around the bottom and she's yellow on the top
E7 A
And I drive her like a driver ought to do.
[Chorus]
A7 D A E7 A
I'm a T.T.C. Skidaddler; gotta sockit with my big Red Rattler.

Gotta sockit with my big Red Rattler.

I love my little wife at home, I love my coupla kids

They often take the trolley to the park,

They know ther daddy's driven the people here and there

But I'll be back again to pick them up at dark.
