Freight Train Blues - Roy Acuff[00:00:00]
Written by:Roy Acuff[00:00:02]
I was born in Dixie in a boomer's shack[00:00:10]
Just a little shanty by a railroad track[00:00:14]
The hummin' of the drivers was my lullaby[00:00:18]
A freight train whistle taught me how to cry[00:00:22]
I've got the freight train blues lordy lordy lordy[00:00:26]
I've got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes[00:00:32]
And when the whistle blows I've gotta go[00:00:38]
Oh lordy I guess I'm never gonna lose freight train blues[00:00:42]
My daddy was a fireman and my mammy dear[00:00:48]
She was the only daughter of an engineer[00:00:51]
My sister married a brakeman and it ain't no joke[00:00:55]
It's a shame the way she keeps a good man broke[00:00:58]
I've got freight train blues lordy lordy lordy[00:01:03]
I've got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes[00:01:09]
And when the whistle blows I've gotta go[00:01:15]
Oh lordy I guess I'm never gonna lose freight train blues[00:01:19]
A steamboat never stirs my soul[00:01:25]
Aeroplanes and autos always leave me cold[00:01:28]
The only thing that makes me want to navigate[00:01:32]
Is a wild cat whistle on a south bound freight[00:01:35]
I've got freight train blues lordy lordy lordy[00:01:40]
I've got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes[00:01:46]
And when the whistle blows I've gotta go[00:01:51]
Oh lordy I guess I'm never gonna lose freight train blues[00:01:56]
NowI know I'm old enough to quit this running round[00:02:01]
I've tried a hundred times to stop and settle down[00:02:05]
But every time I find a place I want to stay[00:02:09]
A freight train holler and I'm on my way[00:02:12]
I've got freight train blues lordy lordy lordy[00:02:17]
I've got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes[00:02:23]
And when the whistle blows I've gotta go[00:02:28]
Oh lordy I guess I'm never gonna lose freight train blues[00:02:32]
