Testo Freight Train - Doc Watson
Testo della canzone Freight Train (Doc Watson), tratta dall'album The Bottom Line Archive Series: 2002
I was born in Dixie in a boomer's shack
In a little shanty by a railroad track
The hummin' of the drivers was my lullaby
And a freight train whistle helped me how to cry
I've got the freight train blues, lordy, lordy, lordy
Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes, oh-oh
When the whistle blows, I've gotta go
Lordy, lordy, I think I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
My daddy is a fireman and my mama dear
Well, she's the only daughter of an engineer
My sweetie is a brakeman, man, and it sure ain't no joke
Cause it knows just exactly how that keeps me broke
I've got the freight train blues, lordy, lordy, lordy
Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes, oh-oh
When the whistle blows, I've gotta go
Lordy, lordy, I think I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
I love the sweetest little girl in this whole town
She's the only thing that's made me settle down
The only thing that makes me want to marry again
Is the wildcat whistle on our found place
I've got the freight train blues, lordy, lordy, lordy
Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes, oh-oh
When the whistle blows, I've gotta go
Lordy, lordy, I think I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
