Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I've gone

Freight train, freight train, comin' round the bend
Freight train, who ya gonna send?
One of these days I'm gonna ride
go back to my home town

One more place I'd like to be
One more place I'd love to see
Watch those ol' Blueridge Mountains fly
When I ride old number *

When I die, please bury me
Down at the end of Regesse Street
So I can hear old number *
As she goes rolling by
