Freight Train Blues歌词

作曲 : Traditional
I was born in Dixie in a boomer shed
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
I got the freight train blues
Oh Lord mama, I got them in the bottom of my rambling shoes
And when the whistle blows I got to go
Baby don't you know
Well, it looks like I'm never going to lose
The freight train blues
Well, my daddy was a fireman and my mama-ha
She was the only daughter of an engineer
My sweetheart was a brakeman and it ain't no joke
Seems a waste to get a good man broke
I got the freight train blues
Oh Lord mama, I got them in the bottom of my rambling shoes
And when the whistle blows I got to go
Mama don't you know
Well it looks like I'm never going to lose
The freight train blues
Well, the only thing that makes me laugh again
Is a southbound whistle on a southbound train
Every place I want to go
I never can go
Because you know I got the freight train blues
Oh Lord mama, I got them in the bottom of my rambling shoes
