Bob Dylan - Freight Train Blues текст песни

(first releasetraditional, arranged by bob dylan)

I was born in dixie in a boomers shack,

Just a little shanty by the railroad track

Freight train was it taught me how to cry,

The holler of the driver was my lullaby.

Ive got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo)

Oh, lawdy mama got em on the bottom of my ramblin shoes

And when the whistle blows, I gotta go

Baby dont you know

It looks like Im never gonna lose

The freight train blues.

Well, my daddy was a fireman and my mama hear

She was the only daughter of the engineer

My sweetheart loved the brakeman and that aint no joke

Its a shame the way she keeps a good man broke.

I got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo)

Oh, lawdy I got em in the bottom of my ramblin shoes

And when the whistle blows, I gotta go

Oh mama dont you know

Well it looks like Im never gonna lose

The freight train blues.

Well, the only thing that makes you laugh again

Is a south bound whistle on a south bound train

Every place I want to go

I never can go because you know

Because I got the freight train blues (hee, hee, hoo)

Oh, lawdy mama, got em on the bottom of my ramblin shoes
