[Chorus]
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Please don't tell 'em what train I'm on
For they won't know what route I have gone

[Verse 1: Jeremie Albino]
When I die, Lord, bury me deep
Way down there on Chestnut Street
So I can hear old number nine
As she comes rolling down the line

[Verse 2: Cat Clyde]
When I'm dead and in my grave
No more good times will I crave
Lay a stone at my head and feet
Tell the world that I've gone to sleep

[Chorus]
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Please don't tell 'em what train I'm on
For they won't know what route I have gone

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Freight train, freight train, going so fast
Please don't tell 'em what train I'm on
For they won't know what route I have gone

[Outro]
Please don't tell 'em what train I'm on
For they won't know what route I have gone
