Freight Train (Acoustic Demo 1982)

I hear a train a-coming, rolling down the track

I hope that train will take me away and never come back

Away and never come back

Freight Train, Freight Train, blow your whistle, ring your bell

If I left this town, nobody’d say “fare thee well”

Nobody’d say “fare thee well”

Freight Train, take me away from here

I’d like to see the wide open world out there

Freight Train, take me away from here

Where you’re going, I don’t care

I feel the ground shaking so strong my heart pounds

No one can stop you, nothing can slow you down

Nothing can slow you down

Freight Train, Freight Train, going so fast

Will you let me, ride away from the past

Ride away from the past

Freight Train, take me away from here

I’d like to see the wide open world out there

Freight Train, take me away from here

Where you’re going, I don’t care
