[Ab] Now I was born in Dixie in a boomer shack, [Bb] just a little shady [Eb] by the railroad track.
[Ab] The hum of my engine was my lullaby, and the freight train whistle taught me how to cry.
I've got the freight train blues,
[Bb] and
[Eb] [Ab] the whistle of all the galloping [Abm] [Ab] cats,
and never gonna lose the freight train [Ab] blues.
Now I know I'm old enough to stop rambling around, [Bb] I've tried a hundred times to [Eb] stop and settle down,
[Ab] but every time I find a place that I like to stay, I hear a freight train holler and I'm on my way.
I've got the freight train blues,
and my mama's [Bb] rambling too.
[Eb]
[Ab] And when the whistle blows, it's gotta go,
oh lordy, yes, it's never [Eb] gonna lose the freight [Ab] train blues.
