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 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

Well every time I talk to you
And I hear you jealous lies
I feel like I have been left abandoned
On some old railway side
And everytime I hear you voice
My water just gets cold
My stoker will not stoke
And my boiler will not boil

Chorus

Well everytime I fell behind
And I could not get ahead
I wish someone would pull the lever
And give me a little sin
And everytime I slip behind 
Even further back
I wish some switchman would
Come out of the fog and change my track

Chorus
