I was born in Dixie in a boomer’s shack
G7
C
Just a little old shanty by a railroad track
G7
C
And a freight train whistle taught me how to cry
D7
G7
Got ’em in the bottom of my rambling shoes
C
And when that whistle blows I’ve gotta go
F
C
Oh Lordy guess I’m never gonna lose
G7
C
The freight train blues
G7
C
Was the only daughter of an en-gineer
G7
C
Now it’s a shame the way she keeps a good man broke
D7
G7
Got ’em in the bottom of my rambling shoes
C
And when that whistle blows I’ve gotta go
F
C
Oh Lordy guess I’m never gonna lose
G7

The freight train blues
