Lyrics
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
Freight train, freight train, comin' round the bend
Freight train, freight train, gone again
One of these days turn that train around
Go back to my hometown
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
One more place I'd like to be
One more place I'd love to see
To watch those old blue ridge mountains climb
When I ride ol' number nine
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
When I die please bury me deep
Down at the end of Bleecker Street
So I can hear ol' number nine
As she goes rollin' by
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone
