Its lyrics tell the story of someone who is tired of city life and decides to return to their rural roots to adopt a simpler, more carefree life. Asleep at the Wheel's take on "Choo Choo Ch'Boogie" became the group's first song to chart on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, peaking at Number 69.
