Freight Train Blues |
| I hate to hear that freight train blow, boo-hoo |
| I hate to hear that freight train blow, boo-hoo |
| Every time I hear it blowin', I feel like ridin' too |
| I asked the brake man to let me ride the blind |
| I asked the brake man to let me ride the blind |
| He said «Little girlie, you know this train ain’t mine» |
| (Sidney Bechet plays a blue clarinet solo here) |
| That’s a mean old fireman, cruel old engineer |
| That’s a mean old fireman, cruel old engineer |
| It was a mean old train that took my man away from here |
| I’ve got the freight train blues, but I’m too darn mean to cry |
| I’ve got the freight train blues, too darn mean to cry |
| I’m gonna love that man till the day he die |
| There’s three trains ready but none ain’t goin' my way |
| I said there’s three trains ready but none ain’t goin' my way |
| But the sun’s gonna shine in my backdoor some day |
