Scrutiny of the bounty
Highest payroll in the county
Dinky engine runs on rails
Joy riders tell those tales
Standing in the sun for miles
Or in the spitting rain
Wend along down by the bay
On a flatbed cargo train
All the buyers so fancy
In the custom Pullman car
See them dance inside
Paneled walls of pure vermilion
Get your cigar and brandy
Admire imported wood
From the Indian Andamans
Where arrows speak louder than words
Sitting in the sun for miles
Following the rail
Join the joy riders' party
Come sun or wind or rain
Or wind or wave or wind
Or rain or hail or wind
Or rain or hail
Joy riders!
Joy riders!
Joy riders!
Woo hoo!
