Joan Baez - Freight Train lyrics

rate me

(Elizabeth Cotten)

Freight train, freight train going so fast

Freight train, freight train going so fast

Please don't say what train I'm on

and they won't know what route I've gone.

Please don't tell'em what train I'm on

they won't know what route I've gone.

When I'm dead and in my grave

no more good times shall I pray,

Place a stone at my head and feet,

tell the world that I've gone to sleep.

Place a stone at my head and feet,

tell the world that I've gone to sleep.

Freight train, freight train going so fast

Freight train, freight train going so fast

Please don't tell'em what train I'm on

they won't know what route I've gone.
