Freight Train Blues Lyrics
I hate to hear that freight train blow, boo-hoo<br />
I hate to hear that freight train blow, boo-hoo<br />
Every time I hear it blowin', I feel like ridin' too<br />
<br />
I asked the brake man to let me ride the blind<br />
I asked the brake man to let me ride the blind<br />
He said "Little girlie, you know this train ain't mine"<br />
<br />
(Sidney Bechet plays a blue clarinet solo here)<br />
<br />
That's a mean old fireman, cruel old engineer<br />
That's a mean old fireman, cruel old engineer<br />
It was a mean old train that took my man away from here<br />
<br />

I've got the freight train blues, but I'm too darn mean to cry<br />
I've got the freight train blues, too darn mean to cry<br />
I'm gonna love that man till the day he die<br />
<br />
There's three trains ready but none ain't goin' my way<br />
I said there's three trains ready but none ain't goin' my way<br />
But the sun's gonna shine in my backdoor some day
