Testo Freight Train Blues - Roy Acuff
Testo della canzone Freight Train Blues (Roy Acuff), tratta dall'album The Essential Roy Acuff
I was born in Dixie in a boomer's shack
Just a little shanty by the railroad track
The humming 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 the whistle blows, I got to go, oh Lordy
Guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
My daddy was a fireman and my mama dear
She was the only daughter of an engineer
Sweetie loved a brakeman, now it ain't no joke
But it's a shame the way she kept that 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 got to go, oh Lordy
Guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
I know I'm old enough to quit my runnin' around
I've tried a hundred times to stop and settle down
Every time I find a place I want to stay
I hear a freight train whistle, Lord, 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 the whistle blows, I got to go, oh Lordy
Guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
