Fast Freight |
As I listen for the whistle, lie awake and wait |
Wish the railroad didn’t run so near |
'Cause the rattle and clatter of that old fast freight |
Keeps on makin' music in my ear, go bum again, go bum again, ooh |
Hear the whistle blow, hear the whistle blow |
Clickety clack, clickety clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad track |
Well, if you go, you can’t come back, well if you go, you can’t come back |
Well if you go, you can’t come back, if you go, you can’t come back |
If you go, you can’t come back |
Well, I wouldn’t give a nickel for the bum I use to be |
Work as hard as any man in town |
I got a pretty gal, she thinks the world of me |
Man would be a fool to let her down, go bum again, go bum again, ooh |
Hear the whistle blow, hear the whistle blow |
Clickety clack, clickety clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad track |
Well, if you go, you can’t come back, well if you go, you can’t come back |
Well if you go, you can’t come back, if you go, you can’t come back |
If you go, you can’t come back |
So every night I listen, wonder if it’s late |
In my dreams I’m ridin' on that train |
I feel my pulse are beatin' with that old fast freight |
And thank the Lord I’m just a bum again, go bum again, go bum again, ooh |
Hear the whistle blow, hear the whistle blow |
Clickety clack, clickety clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad track |
Well, if you go, you can’t come back, well if you go, you can’t come back |
Well if you go, you can’t come back, if you go, you can’t come back |
If you go, you can’t come back |
