Yonder Comes A Freight Train

Hopped a freight train out of Nashville, rode it up to Ohio From my way on to Detroit, stayed there for a month or so Caught a ride into Chicago with a truck drivin' man Stayed there for the summer singin' with a country band And every time I hear a freight train's lonesome whistle blow I think about the good girl I got a waitin' for me at home Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine Freight train Hopped a freight out of Chicago, thought that it was southern bound Ended up in New York City where they travel underground Stole a ride on a fruit truck, went through Charlotte to LA I gotta ride back to Atlanta, like those towns but couldn't stay Rode with a couple to Chattanooga, goin' to see Ruby Falls Hundred and thirty eight miles from Nashville, I'll get home if I'll have to crawl Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine Freight train Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine Freight train
