Petticoat Junction!

Forget about your cares, it is time to relax at the Junction,Petticoat Junction!

Lots of curves, you bet, even more when you get to the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!

Well, there's a little hotel called the Shady Rest at the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!

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

Petticoat Junction!

And you'll meet Uncle Joe, he's a-movin' kinda slow at the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!

When they hear the dinner bell from the Shady Rest Hotel at the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!

Folks will walk a country mile for that chicken country-style at the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!

But the dishes to observe are those pretty gals who serve at the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!

Well, we'll soon be leavin' town

There's old Charley oilin' round

Can she make it up the hill

At least to Hooterville

The pressure's on the rise

Floyd is burning railroad ties

Everybody get inside

Doesn't cost a cent to ride

Come one and come all and we'll take that Cannonball to the Junction,

Petticoat Junction!
