Am Well I just came down from Chebawai F Had a stationwagon and a hundred dollars G Am I was thinking about the girl I lost a year before And I hadn't seen her for some time F And I thought that I might go on by G When your memory came flooding in Am And you closed that door [Chorus] Am Wish I was a freight train baby F Wish I was a diesel locomotive G I'd come whistl'in down your track Am Crash'in in your door Am Wish I was a freight train baby F Wish I didn't have a heart G And you'd need a shovel for the coal Am Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train baby E Wish I was a freight train Am Well every time I talk to you And I hear you jealous lies F G I feel like I have been left abandoned Am On some old railway siding And everytime I hear you voice F My water just gets cold G My stoker will not stoke Am And my boiler will not boil [Chorus] Am Wish I was a freight train baby F Wish I was a diesel locomotive G I'd come whistl'in down your track Am Crash'in in your door Am Wish I was a freight train baby F Wish I didn't have a heart G And you'd need a shovel for the coal Am Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train baby E Wish I was a freight train Am Well everytime I fell behind F And I could not get ahead G I wish someone would pull the lever Am And give me a little sand And everytime I slip behind F Even further back G I wish some switchman would Am Come out of the fog and change my track [Chorus] Am Wish I was a freight train baby F Wish I was a diesel locomotive G I'd come whistl'in down your track Am Crash'in in your door Am Wish I was a freight train baby F Wish I didn't have a heart G And you'd need a shovel for the coal Am Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train baby E Wish I was a freight train
