Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm gonna give 'em that 2-4-4 on the floor

Like an outlaw boy's on the day before

Got the pretty girls out there beggin' for more

Gotta give 'em all what they came here for

Doin' my thing, singin' my song, right on track, I'm chuggin' along

I'm here and gone like yesterday, rollin' like an old freight train

[Verse 2]

On a wing and a prayer in a glorified Greyhound bus

Flyin' down the road runnin' 9-0 and kickin' up dust

Drinkin' truck-stop coffee, countin' birds on those telephone wires

Burnin' the midnight oil and the tread of these Old Goodyear tires

[Verse 3]

I'm gonna give 'em that 2-4-4 on the floor

Like an outlaw boy's on the day before

Got the pretty girls out there beggin' for more

Gotta give 'em all what they came here for

Doin' my thing, singin' my song, right on track, I'm chuggin' along

I'm here and gone like yesterday, rollin' like an old freight train

[Verse 4]

And sometimes my mind is a million miles away

I know you're sound asleep at home while I'm on this stage

And I'm missin' you, wishin' I was kissin' you everyday

But girl, I gotta keep rollin', rollin' like an old freight train

[Verse 5]

And it's a mighty lonesome sound when there's not a soul around

To help you ease your pain but you gotta keep rollin'

Rollin' like an old freight train

[Verse 6]

I'm gonna give 'em that 2-4-4 on the floor

Like an outlaw boy's on the day before

Got the pretty girls out there beggin' for more

Gotta give 'em all what they came here for

Doin' my thing, singin' my song, right on track, I'm chuggin' along

I'm here and gone like yesterday, rollin' like an old freight train

[Verse 7]

Comin' on down the line, feel that diesel engine whine

Smell the smoke stack, hear the gears grind

Full steam ahead, halfway out of my mind

I'm too far gone to be turnin' back goin'

Clickety clack down the railroad track

I'm here and gone like yesterday, rollin' like an old freight train

Just like an old freight train

Tell me, do you wanna ride this train?
