Yonder Comes A Freight Train Lyrics - Kenny Price

Hopped a freight train out of Nashville, rode it up to Ohio 

From my way on to Detroit, stayed there for a month or so 

Caught a ride into Chicago with a truck drivin' man 

Stayed there for the summer singin' with a country band 

And every time I hear a freight train's lonesome whistle blow 

I think about the good girl I got a waitin' for me at home 

Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line 

Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine 

I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine 

Freight train 

Hopped a freight out of Chicago, thought that it was southern bound 

Ended up in New York City where they travel underground 

Stole a ride on a fruit truck, went through Charlotte to LA 

I gotta ride back to Atlanta, like those towns but couldn't stay 

Rode with a couple to Chattanooga, goin' to see Ruby Falls 

Hundred and thirty eight miles from Nashville, I'll get home if I'll have to crawl 

Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line 

Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine 

I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine 

Freight train 

Yonder comes a freight train movin' on down the line 

Yonder comes a freight train, listen to that engine whine 

I'm gittin' on that old train and goin' back to that good, good girl of mine 

Freight train
