Delmore Brothers - I Let the Freight Train Carry Me On

Used to be a happy, happy man
But not many people I can understand
I promise you this and promise you that
And when you're in trouble they'll leave you flat

I let the freight train carry me on
I let the freight train carry me on
I let the freight train carry me on
Cause there ain't no trouble when I'm ridin' along

My baby was sweet as she can be
Before she came and married me
As soon as she got me in the bag
She treated like an old dish rag

I let the freight train carry me on
I let the freight train carry me on
I let the freight train carry me on
Cause there ain't no trouble when I'm ridin' along

I had a good pal but he done me wrong
He took all my money and my sweetie along
I never did thank him call me back
But I don't worry while I'm ridin' the train

I let the freight train carry me on
I let the freight train carry me on
I let the freight train carry me on
Cause there ain't no trouble when I'm ridin' along
