[Verse 1]
Em C I just came down from Chippewa, had a station wagon and a hundred dollars D Em Thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a year before Em C I hadn't seen her for some time, thought I might go on by D Em When your memory came floodin' in and you closed that door
[Chorus]
Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I was a diesel locomotive D Em I'd come whistlin' down your track crashin' in your door Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I didn't have a heart D Em You need a shovel for the coal just to get me started Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I was a freight train baby D Em Wish I was a freight train
[Verse 2]
Em C Well, every time I talk to you I hear your jealous lies D Em I feel like I've been left abandoned on some old railway side Em C And every time I hear your voice my water just gets cold D Em My stoker will not stoke and my boiler will not boil.
[Chorus]
Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I was a diesel locomotive D Em I'd come whistlin' down your track crashin' in your door Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I didn't have a heart D Em You need a shovel for the coal just to get me started Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I was a freight train baby D Em Wish I was a freight train

[Verse 3]
Em C Well, every time I fell behind I could not get ahead D Em I wish someone would pull the lever and give me a little sand Em C And every time I slip behind even further back D Em I wish some switch man would come out of the fog and change my track
[Chorus]
Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I was a diesel locomotive D Em I'd come whistlin' down your track crashin' in your door Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I didn't have a heart D Em You need a shovel for the coal just to get me started Em C Wish I was a freight train baby, wish I was a freight train baby D Em Wish I was a freight train
