Freight Train (Elizabeth Cotton)
(Chorus)
- Freight train, freight train, going so fast,
-
- Freight train, freight train, going so fast.
-
- Please dont tell what train Im on
-
- So they wont know where Ive gone.
Freight train, freight train, coming round the bend,
Freight train, freight train, gone again,
One of these days, turn that train around
And go back to - - - o, my hometown.
(Chorus)
One more place I d like to be,
One more place I d love to see,
To watch them Ol Blue Ridge Mountains climb
When I ride Ol Number nine.
(Chorus)
When I die Lord, bury me deep
Down at the end of Chestnut Street
Where I can hear Ol Number nine
As she comes on down the line.
(Chorus)
