Lyrics of Yonder comes a freight train

Hopped a freight train out of nashville, rode it up to ohio
From my way on to detroit, stayed there for a month or so
Caught a ride into chicago with a truck drivin' man
Stayed there for the summer singin' with a country band

And every time i hear a freight train's lonesome whistle blow
I think about the good girl i got a waitin' for me at home

Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line
Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine
I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine
Freight train

Hopped a freight out of chicago, thought that it was southern bound
Ended up in new york city where they travel underground
Stole a ride on a fruit truck, went through charlotte to la
I gotta ride back to atlanta, like those towns but couldn't stay

Rode with a couple to chattanooga, goin' to see ruby falls
Hundred and thirty eight miles from nashville, i'll get home if i'll have to crawl

Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line
Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine
I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine
Freight train

Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line
Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine
I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine
Freight train
