Вступление
[Verse]
I was born in Dixie in a boomer's shack
Just a little old shanty by a railroad track
The hummin' of the drivers was my lullaby
And a freight train whistle taught me how to cry
[Chorus]
I've got the freight train blues Lordy Lordy Lordy
Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes
And when that whistle blows I've gotta go
Oh Lordy I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
[Verse]
Now a steamboat never stirs my soul
And aeroplanes and autos always leave me cold
The only thing that makes me want to navigate
Is the wildcat whistle on a south bound freight
[Chorus]
I've got the freight train blues Lordy Lordy Lordy
Got 'em in the bottom of my ramblin' shoes
And when that whistle blows I've gotta go
Oh Lordy I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues
