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
