Freight Train

Traditional

Lyrics:

 

Freight train, freight train goin’ so fast 

Freight train, freight train goin’ so fast 

Please don’t tell them what train I’m on, 

And they won’t know where I’ve gone. 

Freight train, freight goin’ down the track 

Freight train, freight train goin’ down the track 

Please don’t tell them what train I’m on, 

And they won’t know where I’ve gone. 

Freight train, freight train goin’ to the farm 

Freight train, freight train goin’ to the farm 

Please don’t tell them what train I’m on, 

And they won’t know where I’ve gone.
