buddy williams (australian) - freight train blues lyrics
standing in the yard
there’s an old freight train
blowing off a head of steam
i’ve got those blues again
the driver’s smiling at me
saying, “crawl aboard, young lad
“you’re young in years, so why the tears?
“what makes you feel so sad?”
“mister engine+man
“my gal ran out on me
“she’s gone and wed another man
“she’s strung me up a tree”
“ride this rattler, boy”
the driver called to me
“roll along the rails of steel
“and set your worries free”
“in all my married life
“i’ve wanted to be free
“and here you are, still crying, lad
“’bout your wife that was to be”
“so here’s some sound advice
“just take this tip from me
“once you wed, and settle down
“there’s no more liberty”
“so ride the glittering rails
“your blues will fade away
“there’s lots more sweethearts around the bend
“and tomorrow is another day”
“mister engine+man
“i don’t wish to go
“but my heart will break if i go or stay
“so let that engine roll”
