Freight Train Blues |
| 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 |
