Laura Cantrell - Yonder Comes A Freight Train Lyrics
Hopped a freight train out of Nashville, rode it up to Ohio.Made my way to Detroit City where I stayed a week or so.Hauled a ride to Chicago with a truck drivin' man.An' I stayed there for the summer, singin' with a Country band.Every time I hear a freight train lonesome whistle blow,I think about the good man I got waitin' on 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 gettin' off that old train:I'm goin' back to that good, good man of mine.Instrumental break.Hopped the freight out of Chicago, thought that it was southern bound.Ended up in New York City where we travel underground.Caught a ride with a crew truck, went from Charlotte to L.A..Made my way back to Atlanta but I wasn't there to stay.Thumbed a ride with a couple goin' to see River Falls.Only thirty miles from Nashville, well, I'll get back if I 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 gettin' off that old train:I'm goin' back to that good, good man of mine.Instrumental BreakYonder comes a freight train,Movin' on down the line.Yonder comes a freight train,Listen to that engine whine.I'm gettin' off that old train:I'm goin' back to that good, good man of mine.I'm gettin' off that old train:I'm goin' back.
