Full lyrics

Come ride the little train that is rolling down the tracks to the junction.

Forget about your cares, it is time to relax at the junction.

Lotsa curves, you bet. Even more when you get,
To the junction, Petticoat Junction.

There's a little hotel called the Shady Rest at the junction.

It is run by Kate, come and be her guest at the junction.

And that's Uncle Joe, he's a movin' kind of slow at the junction,
Petticoat Junction. (Where the TV version ends)

Come and hear the dinner bell from the Shady Rest Hotel at the junction.

Folks will walk a country mile for some chicken country style at the junction.

Lots of dishes to observe, all the pretty girls who serve at the junction.
Petticoat Junction. (Where the Flatt & Scruggs recording ends)

(Quicker pace)
Well, we'll soon be leavin' town, there's old Charley oilin' round,
Can she make it up the hill, that leads to Hooterville,
The pressure's on the rise, Floyd is burnin' railroad ties.
Everybody get inside, doesn't cost us if we ride,
Come one and come all, and we'll take that Cannonball to the junction.
Petticoat Junction. (Where the Curt Massey Single ends)
