Album: Bud the Spud and Other Favorites
I'm a TTC Skidaddler yeah to sockit to my big red rattler-
Ya to sockit to my big red rattler
I've been a streetcar driver now about eleven years
& I know the old Toronto city well
There's a whole lotta people who wait along the track
For the signal from my clangin trolley bell...
Chorus:
Put the pole upon the wire now and open up the switch-
It's time to get old rattler sparkin through.
She's red around the bottom and she's yellow on the top
And I drive er' like a driver oughta do...
Chorus:
I love my little wife at home I love my couple kids
They often take the trolley to the park-
They know their daddy's drivin the people here and there,
But I'll be back again to pick them up at dark.
Chorus:
Don't forget your ticket when I open up the door-
Kindly make your way along the aisle
I'll drive ya down to work and I'll safely bring ya back
And I'll try to render service with a smile
Chorus:
I'm a TTC skidaddler...
I 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.
For the signal from my clangin trolley bell.
Chorus:
Ya ta sockit to my big red rattler
