Freight Train Blues Lyrics
Show me when to cut his throat boys, man 'cause I'm Gonna Kill Him Dead
He hadn't been a Hobo
I wouldn't done nothin' with him
Well I first started hobo'in, bo'in, bo'in...
I take a freight train to be my friend
Oh Lord
My little baby
I wonder why she do it
My baby she followed me
She followed me one mornin', one mornin'
Down to the train oh Lord
Oh if I don't see you, see ya tomorrow, tomorrow
You will be my end, oh Lord
Yes!
I was standin' at the station
When that big train turned around the bend
My baby leavin' on that train
I said I may not see you in God knows when
Then I had to holler
My baby's gone
My baby's gone
My baby's gone
To ne're return no more
Oh Lord
Oh Lord that sweet little woman
That I had
Oh man in my life before
Say it just a minute and just get it out a minute...
