Freight Train Songtext
von Teitur

I was born my parents′ son
From my first breath I was the one
Expected to hang the moon
I learned to walk in my father's shoes
I loved my mother like good boys do

I never rode a freight train

Scored the winning goal for my home team
I made the grades for university
I hung my diploma on the wall
I signed on to be a company man
It was all part of a master plan


I never rode a freight train
I never saw the stars on Hollywood and Vine
I never kissed the wrong girl
I never got drunk in Spain
No, I never rode a freight train

I fell in love with a debutante
I gave her a ring in a restaurant
I bought us a home in the right part of town
We had a son, he looked up to me
I said "I love you, but promise me you′ll never say"

I never rode a freight train
I never saw the stars on Hollywood and Vine
I never kissed the wrong girl at the right time
I never got drunk in Spain
No, I never rode, I never rode a freight train
