  1. A tin mine boss
    Was making lots of money
    Making lots of money
    In a tin mine town
    A tin mine boss
    Was feeling kinda funny
    Something kept coming round and going round

    Cos if the tin run out
    Gonna be in trouble
    (Gonna be in trouble if the tin run out)
    And if the tin run out
    Won't it be a pity
    Gonna have to call the place no tin city
    Woo woo

    We don't know how far to take it
    But we'll make it or we'll break it
    Someday

    The engineer said gotta keep the wheels turning
    Keep the fire burning like an engineer should
    The engineer tried to keep the motor running
    Just a steaming and a shoveling water and wood

    If the creek run dry
    When d'ya get your water
    If the tree don't grow
    Where d'ya get the wood
    If the fish don't bite
    How you gonna feed 'em
    I guess it's time to move on
    But that's no good

    Woo woo

    Good Time Joe was having quite a party
    Having quite a party with a good time crowd
    Good time Joe was drinking lots of whiskey
    Lots and lots of whiskey when the news got out

    Then the tin ran out
    The mine stopped working
    The creek run dry and the trees don't grow
    When the booze ran out
    He really got a problem
    Well how's he gonna call himself 'Good Time Joe'

    Woo woo
