Chorus:

Freight train freight train goin' so fast

Freight train freight train goin' so fast

Please don't tell what train i'm on

So they won't know where i've gone.



Freight train, freight train, comin' round the bend

Freight train, freight train, gone again

One of these days turn that train around

Go back to my hometown.



(chorus)



One more place i'd like to be

One more place i'd love to see

To watch those old blue ridge mountains climb

As i ride ol' number nine.



(chorus)



When i die please bury me deep

Down at the end of bleecker street

So i can hear ol' number nine

As she goes rollin' by.



(chorus)
