Lyrics

Freight Train

Freight train, freight train, freight train

Rolling through the night

Took my love and went away

In me an open fight

I don't know what train she's on

I may never know

All I know is time keep running down slow

Freight train, freight train, freight train

Don't care where you're about

Take my soul, set it free

Lay your hand (?)

I don't know what train I'm on

(?) got to go

All I know is time keep running down

Time keep running down slow

Freight train, freight train, freight train

Rolling through the night

Took my love and went away

In me an open fight

I don't know what train she's on

I may never know

All I know is time keep running down

Time keep running down slow
