Chorus:

Freight train freight train goin' so fast

Freight train freight train goin' so fast

Don't you say which train I'm on

And they won't know the route I've gone.

Don't you say which train I'm on

And they won't know the route I've gone.

When I die please bury me deep

Down at the end of ol' Chestnut Street

Place a stone at my head and feet

And tell 'em all I've gone to sleep

Place a stone at my head and feet

And tell 'em all I've gone to sleep

When I die please bury me deep

Down at the end of ol' Chestnut Street

So I can hear ol' number nine

As she goes down by.

So I can hear ol' number nine

As she goes down by.

Chorus

Don't you say which train I'm on

And they won't know the route I've gone.
