Freight Train Blue |
I was born in dixie in a boomers shack, |
Just a little shanty by the railroad track |
Freight train was it taught me how to cry, |
The holler of the driver was my lullaby. |
Ive got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo) |
Oh, lawdy mama got em on the bottom of my ramblin shoes |
And when the whistle blows, I gotta go Baby dont you know |
It looks like Im never gonna lose |
The freight train blues. |
Well, my daddy was a fireman and my mama hear |
She was the only daughter of the engineer |
My sweetheart loved the brakeman and that aint no joke |
Its a shame the way she keeps a good man broke. |
I got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo) |
Oh, lawdy I got em in the bottom of my ramblin shoes |
And when the whistle blows, I gotta go Oh mama dont you know |
Well it looks like Im never gonna lose |
The freight train blues. |
Well, the only thing that makes you laugh again |
Is a south bound whistle on a south bound train |
Every place I want to go |
I never can go because you know |
Because I got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo) |
Oh, lawdy mama, got em on the bottom of my ramblin shoes |
