I was born in Dixie in a boomer's shack

Just a little old shanty by a railroad track

The hummin' of the drivers was my lullaby

And a freight train whistle taught me how to cry

I've got the freight train blues lordy lordy lordy

Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes

And when that whistle blows I've gotta go

Oh lordy guess I'm never gonna lose

The freight train blues

My daddy was a fireman and my Mammy dear

She was the only daughter of an engineer

We'd love the brakeman and it ain't no joke

Now it's a shame the way she keeps a good man broke

I've got the freight train blues lordy lordy lordy

Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes

And when the whistle blows I've gotta go

Oh lordy guess I'm never gonna lose

The freight train blues

I know I'm old enough to quit this running round

I've tried a hundred times to stop and settle down

But every time I find a place I'd want to stay

I hear a freight train with lord and I'm on my way

I've got the freight train blues lordy lordy lordy

Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes

And when that whistle blows I've gotta go

Oh lordy guess I'm never gonna lose

The freight train blues

I've got the freight train blues lordy lordy lordy

Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes

And when that whistle blows I've gotta go

Oh lordy guess I'm never gonna lose

The freight train blues
