Going so fast

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Please don't tell

What train I'm on

So they won't know where I've gone

Freight train freight train

Coming round the bend

Freight train freight train

Gone again

One of these days turn

That train around

Go back to my hometown

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Please don't tell

What train I'm on

So they won't know where I've gone

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Please don't tell

What train I'm on

So they won't know where I've gone

When I die please bury me deep

Down at the end of bleecker street

So I can hear ol number nine

As she goes rolling by

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Freight train freight train

Going so fast

Please don't tell

What train I'm on

So they won't know where I've gone
