Freight Train Lyrics by Dave Dudley

Travelin’ With Dave Dudley

0

[Chorus]
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nI don't know what train she's on
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nDon't know where she's heading for
\nWhat she's done against the law
\nGot no future, got no hope
\nNothing but the rope
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nI don't know what train she's on
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nLost her reason, lost her life
\nKilled her friend in a mortal strife
\nMust have movеd like the golden skiеs
\nJust wait until she dies
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nI don't know what train she's on
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nWhen she dies, just bury her, please
\nWay down near old chestnut trees
\nPoplars at her head and feet
\nAnd heaven, she's gone to sleep
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nFreight train, freight train, going so fast
\nI don't know what train she's on
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?
\nWon't you tell me where she's gone?\n\n
