Well I just came down the Chippewa
I had a station wagon and a hundred dollars
I was thinkin’ ‘bout the girl I’d lost
The year before

Well I hadn’t seen her for some time
I thought that I might go on by
When your memory came floodin’ in
And closed that door

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
I’d come whistlin’ down your track
And crashin’ in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn’t have a heart
And you’d need a shovel full of coal
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train

Every time I talk to you, well I hear your jealous lies
I feel like I’ve been left abandoned
On some old railway sidin’
And every time I hear your voice, my water just gets cold
My stoker will not stoke, and my boiler will not boil

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
I’d come whistlin’ down your track
And crashin’ in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn’t have a heart
And you’d need a shovel full of coal
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train

Every time I fell behind and I could not get ahead
I wish someone would pull a lever
And give me a little sand
And every time I slipped behind, hey even further back
I wish some switch man would come out of the fog
And change my track

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
I’d come whistlin’ down your track
And crashin’ in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn’t have a heart
And you’d need a shovel full of coal
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train
