That Old Freight Train

Woke up on Monday and I felt bad
Woke up on Tuesday and I felt sad so sad
I miss my mama and I miss my dad
They're the best friends this poor boy ever had

That old freight train go go go go go go go gonna carry me home
That old freight train go go go go go go go gonna carry me home

Woke up on Wednesday in an old boxcar
Woke up on Thursday think where I are I are
I miss my mama and I miss my dad
They're the best friends this poor boy ever had

That old freight train...

That old freight train...

Woke up on Friday a hundred miles away
And I know Saturday I'll be home to stay to stay
Stay with my mama stay with my dad
They're the best friends this poor boy ever had

That old freight train...
