FREIGHT TRAIN
像多數傳統民謠歌曲一樣, 不同歌手的感受和因應潮流, 把歌詞修改或段數加減來演譯。美國的版本, 是歌者對家園懷緬和遊子之心的表逹, 與英國歌手 Chas McDevitt 1957年面世的版本, 歌詞和節奏各有不同。

CHORUS
Freight train, Freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, Freight train, goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know what route I've gone
Freight train, freight train, going round the bend
Freight train, freight train, gone again
One of these days turn that train around
Go back to my home town
CHORUS
One more place I'd like to be
One more place I'd love to see
To watch those old Blue Ridge Mountain climb
As I ride old Number Nine
CHORUS
When I die please bury me deep
Down at the end of Bleecker Street
So I can hear old Number Nine
As she goes rolling by
CHORUS
Please don't tell what train I'm on
So they won't know where I'm gone.
