Testo Freight Train Blues - Boxcar Willie
Testo della canzone Freight Train Blues (Boxcar Willie), tratta dall'album Live In Concert
Well, I was born in Dixie in a two-room shack
Just a little shanty by the railroad track
The hummin' of the drivers was my lullaby
A freight train whistle taught me how to cry
I got the freight train blues
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
I got 'em in the bottom of a ramblin' shoe
And when I hear that whistle blow
Oh Lord, I gotta go
Well, I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
Look out
My daddy was a fireman and my mama too
She was the only daughter of an engineer
My baby lives in Bricktown and it ain't no joke
It's a doggone shame the way she keeps me broke
I got the freight train blues
Well, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
I got 'em in the bottom of a ramblin' shoe
And when I hear that whistle blow
Oh Lord, I gotta go
Well, I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
One more now
Well, the steamboat whistle never stirred my soul
And aeroplanes and autos always leave me cold
The only thing that makes me wanna mount the king
Was the southbound whistle of a wildcat freight
I got the freight train blues
Hey Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
I got 'em in the bottom of a ramblin' shoe
And when I hear that whistle blow
Oh Lord, I gotta go
Well, I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
Well, I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
