Fast Freight - The Kingston Trio

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 a-makin' music in my ear

Go bum again go bum again oh

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 purty gal she thinks the world of me

Man would be a fool to let her down go bum again

Go bum again oh

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 a-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
