 A7    D         A                         E7       A
I'm a T.T.C. Skidaddler; gotta sockit to my big Red Rattler.

Gotta sockit to my big Red Rattler.


[Verse 1]

A                   E7             A            E7
I've been a street car driver now about eleven years
       A              E7         A
And I know the old Toronto city well.
A                        A7         D
There's a whole lot of people who wait along the track
         E7                               A
For the signal from my clangin' trolley bell.


[Chorus]

A7     D          A                            E7       A
I'm a T.T.C. Skidaddler; gotta sockit with my big Red Rattler.
                     E7        A
Gotta sockit with my big Red Rattler.



[Verse 2]

A                     E7        A               E7
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.

[Verse 3]

A                E7             A                E7
I love my little wife at home, I love my coupla kids
A                   E7              A
They often take the trolley to the park,
A                        A7         D
They know ther daddy's driven the people here and there
    E7                                     A
But I'll be back again to pick them up at dark.
