Chorus:
Freight train freight train run so fast
Freight train freight train run so fast
Please don’t tell ‘em what train I’m on
They won’t know what route I’ve gone
When I’m dead and in my grave
No more good times here I’ll crave
Place them stones at my head and feet
And tell ‘em I’ve gone to sleep
Chorus
When I die Lord bury me deep
Way down on old Chestnut Street
So I can hear that ol’ number nine
As she comes rollin’ by
