Freight Train Lyrics

I had a station wagon and a hundred dollars

I was thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a year before

I hadn't seen her for some time

I thought that I might go on by

When your memory came floodin' in

And you closed that door

[CHORUS:]

Wish I was a freight train baby

Wish I was a diesel locomotive

I'd come whistlin' down your track

Crashin' in your door

Wish I was a freight train baby

Wish I didn't have a heart

And you'd need a shovel for the coal

Just to get me started

Wish I was a freight train baby

Wish I was a freight train

Well every time I talk to you

And I hear your jealous lies

I feel like I've been left abandoned

On some old railway side

And every time I hear your voice

My water just gets coldKasey Chambers - Freight Train - http://motolyrics.com/kasey-chambers/freight-train-lyrics.html

My stoker will not stoke

And my boiler will not boil

[CHORUS]

Well every time I fell behind

And I could not get ahead

I wish someone would pull the lever

And give me a little sand

And every time I slip behind

Even further back

I wish some switchman would come out of the fog

And change my track

Wish I was a freight train baby

Wish I was a diesel locomotive

I'd come whistlin' down your track

Crashin' in your door

Wish I was a freight train baby

Wish I didn't have a heart

And you'd need a shovel for the coal

Just to get me started

Wish I was a freight train baby

Wish I was a freight train . . .
