Freight Train Blues — текст песни (Roy Acuff)

I was born in dixie in a boomerжЉЇ shack,
Just a little old shanty by a railroad track,
The humminof the drivers was my lullaby,
And a freight train whistle taught me how to cry.

Chorus:
IжЉіe got the freight train blues, lordy, lordy, lordy,
Got жЉЏm in the bottom of my ramblin shoes,
And when that whistle blows, IжЉіe gotta go,
oh! lordy! guess IжЉ¦ never gonna lose,
The mean old freight train blues.

now my pappy was a fireman and my mammy dear,
Was the only daughter of an engineer,
My sister married a brakeman and it ainжЉ° no joke,
Now itжЉЇ a shame the way she keeps a good man broke.

Chorus:
IжЉіe got the freight train blues, lordy, lordy, lordy,
Got жЉЏm in the bottom of my ramblin shoes,
And when the whistle blows, IжЉіe gotta go,
oh! lordy! guess IжЉ¦ never gonna lose,
The mean old freight train blues.
