Trixie SmithFreight Train Blues (1924 Version) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I hate to hear that engine blow, boo-hoo
I hate to hear that engine blow, boo-hoo
Every time I hear it blowing, I feel like riding too
[Verse 2]
Got the freight train blues, got box cars on my mind
Got the freight train blues, got box cars on my mind
I'm gonna leave this town 'cause my man is so unkind
[Verse 3]
I'm goin' away just to wear you off my mind
I'm goin' away just to wear you off my mind
And I may be gone, honey, for a doggone long, long time
[Verse 4]
I asked the brakeman to let me ride the blind
Lord, I asked the brakeman to let me ride the blind
The brakeman said "Little girlie, you know this train ain't mine"
[Verse 5]
When a woman gets the blues, she goes to her room and hides
When a woman gets the blues, she goes to her room and hides
But when a man gets the blues, he catches a freight train and rides
