[00:00.00]Freight Train Blues - Roy Acuff
[00:10.06]I was born in Dixie in a boomers shack
[00:12.72]Just a little old shanty by a railroad track
[00:15.54]The hummin of the drivers was my lullaby
[00:18.07]And a freight train whistle taught me how to cry
[00:23.02]I've got the freight train blues Lordy Lordy Lordy
[00:28.52]Got em in the bottom of my ramblin shoes
[00:34.25]And when that whistle blows I've gotta go
[00:37.37]Oh Lordy guess I'm never gonna lose
[00:40.13]The mean old freight train blues
[00:43.52]Now my pappy was a fireman and my mammy dear
[00:46.41]Was the only daughter of an engineer
[00:49.05]My sister married a brakeman and it ain't no joke
[00:51.81]Now it's a shame the way she keeps a good man broke
[00:56.46]I've got the freight train blues Lordy Lordy Lordy
[01:01.93]Got em in the bottom of my ramblin shoes
[01:07.48]And when that whistle blows I've gotta go
[01:10.60]Oh Lordy guess I'm never gonna lose
[01:13.39]The mean old freight train blues
[01:41.28]I've got the freight train blues Lordy Lordy Lordy
[01:46.96]Got em in the bottom of my ramblin shoes
[01:52.17]And when that whistle blows I've gotta go
[01:55.25]Oh Lordy guess I'm never gonna lose
[01:57.76]The mean old freight train blues
[02:12.76]I've got the freight train blues Lordy Lordy Lordy
[02:18.27]Got em in the bottom of my ramblin shoes
[02:23.87]And when that whistle blows I've gotta go
[02:26.82]Oh Lordy guess I'm never gonna lose
[02:29.36]The mean old freight train blues
