Freight Train Blues

Freight Train Blues - Trixie Smith

I hate to hear that freight train blow boo hoo

I hate to hear that freight train blow boo hoo

Every time I hear It blowin' I feel like ridin' too

I asked the brake man to let me ride the blind

I asked the brake man to let me ride the blind

He said little gillie you know this train ain't mine

That's a mean old fireman cruel old engineer

That's a mean old fireman cruel old engineer

It was a mean old train that took my man away from here

I've got the freight train blues but I'm too darn mean to cry

I've got the freight train blues too darn mean to cry

I'm gonna love that man till the day he die

There's three trains ready but none ain't goin' my way

I said there's three trains ready but none ain't goin' my way

But the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor some day
