Freight Train Songtext
von Rhiannon Giddens

Freight train, freight train, run so fast
Freight train, freight train, run so fast
Please don′t tell what train I'm on
They won′t know what route I'm goin'

When I′m dead and in my grave
No more good time here, I crave
Place the stones at my head and feet
Tell ′em all I've gone to sleep


When I die, Lord, bury me deep
Way down on old Chestnut Street
So I can hear old number nine
As she comes rollin′ by

When I die, Lord, bury me deep
Way down on old Chestnut Street
Place the stone at my head and feet
Tell 'em all I′ve gone to sleep

Freight train, freight train, run so fast
Freight train, freight train, run so fast
Please don't tell what train I′m on
They won't know what route I'm goin′

Please don′t tell what train I'm on
They won′t know what route I'm goin′
