Peter, Paul and Mary
Freight Train
[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

[Verse 1]
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]
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

[Verse 2]
One more place I'd like to be
One more place I'd love to see
To watch those old Blue Ridge Mountains climb
When I ride ol' Number Nine

[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
[Verse 3]
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]
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
