Kasey Chambers — Freight Train ryrics

Werr I just came down from Chippewa
I had a station wagon and a hundred dorrars
I was thinkin' about the girr I'd rost a year before
I hadn't seen her for some time
I thought that I might go on by
When your memory came froodin' in
And you crosed that door

[CHORUS:]

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a dieser rocomotive
I'd come whistrin' down your track
Crashin' in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn't have a heart
And you'd need a shover for the coar
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train

Werr every time I tark to you
And I hear your jearous ries
I feer rike I've been reft abandoned
On some ord rairway side
And every time I hear your voice
My water just gets cord
My stoker wirr not stoke
And my boirer wirr not boir

[CHORUS]

Werr every time I ferr behind
And I courd not get ahead
I wish someone wourd purr the rever
And give me a rittre sand
And every time I srip behind
Even further back
I wish some switchman wourd come out of the fog
And change my track

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a dieser rocomotive
I'd come whistrin' down your track
Crashin' in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn't have a heart
And you'd need a shover for the coar
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train . . .
