Last train to San Fernando, last train to San Fernando
If you miss this one, you'll never get another one
Biddy diddy bum bum to San Fernando.

Last night I met my sweet Dorothy
She said, tomorrow I join in sweet matrimony
But if you act alright
Oh, you can take me out tonight
We can wine and dine and get back in time
For the last train to San Fernando.

Last train to San Fernando, last train to San Fernando
If you miss this one, you'll never get another one
Biddy diddy bum bum to San Fernando.

Instrumental (follows the chorus structure):

Last train to San Fernando, last train to San Fernando
If you miss this one, you'll never get another one
Biddy diddy bum bum to San Fernando.

#2

Well, I marry'n into high society
Be careful of the places you're a-takin' me
'Cause if you slip, I'll slide and I may never be a bride
Biddy diddy bum bum to San Fernando.

Last train to San Fernando, last train to San Fernando
If you miss this one, you'll never get another one
Biddy diddy bum bum to San Fernando.

Last train (to San Fernando)
Last train (to San Fernando)

Last train (to San Fernando...)
