What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Well, I just came down the Chippewa
2
Had a station wagon and a hundred dollars
3
I was thinking 'bout the girl I'd lost a year before
4
I hadn't seen her for some time
5
Thought that I might go on by
6
When your memory came flooding in and you closed that door
7
Wish I was a freight train, baby
8
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
9
I'd come whistling down your track
10
And crashing in your door
11
Wish I was a freight train, baby
12
Wish I didn't have a heart
13
And you'd need a shovel full of coal
14
Just to get me started
15
Wish I was a freight train, baby
16
Wish I was a freight train
17
Every time I talk to you
18
And I hear your jealous lies
19
I feel like I've been left abandoned
20
On some old railway siding
21
And every time I hear your voice
22
My water just keeps cold
23
My stoker will not stoke
24
And my boiler will not boil
25
Wish I was a freight train, baby
26
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
27
I'd come whistling down your track
28
And crashing in your door
29
Wish I was a freight train, baby
30
Wish I didn't have a heart
31
And you'd need a shovel full of coal
32
Just to get me started
33
Wish I was a freight train, baby
34
Wish I was a freight train
35
Every time I fell behind and I could not get ahead
36
I wish someone would pull a lever
37
And give me a little sand
38
And every time I slip behind, hey, even further back
39
I wish some switch man would come out of the fog and change my track
40
Wish I was a freight train, baby
41
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
42
I'd come whistling down your track
43
And crashing in your door
44
Wish I was a freight train, baby
45
Wish I didn't have a heart
46
And you'd need a shovel full of coal
47
Just to get me started
48
Wish I was a freight train, baby
49
Wish I was a freight train
