Freight Train

I just came down from Chippewa Had a station wagon and a 100 dollars Thinkin' about the girl I had lost a year before I hadn't seen her for some time Thought I might go on by When your memory came floodin' in And you closed that door Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a diesel locomotive I'd come whistling down your track Crashing in your door Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I didnt have a heart You need a shovel for the coal Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train Well, every time I talk to you I hear your jealous lines I feel like I've been left abandoned on some old railway side And every time I hear your voice My water just gets cold My stoker will not stoke And my boiler will not boil Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a diesel locomotive I'd come whistling down your track Crashing in your door Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I didnt have a heart You need a shovel for the coal Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train Well, every time I fell behind I could not get ahead I wish someone would pull the lever And give me a little sand And every time I slip behind Even further back I wish some switch man would come out of fog And change my track Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a diesel locomotive I'd come whistling down your track Crashing in your door Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I didnt have a heart You need a shovel for the coal Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train Woo! Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a diesel locomotive I'd come whistling down your track Crashing in your door Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I didnt have a heart You need a shovel for the coal Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train, baby Wish I was a freight train
