Spell of the Freight Train

Jack Clement

The wild birds are flying high wild and free
Whatever calls, the wild birds is calling to me
The spell of the freight train got in my blood one day
I'm always going, never get nowhere, I'm just on my way

My baby, she loves me but she don't understand
The spell of the freight train that's calling her man
My daddy is a preacher, my mother teaches school
My brother is a doctor and me I'm a fool

The spell of the freight train is stronger than wine
That same lonesome whistle
That chills my darling's heart is calling mine

My baby, she loves me but she don't understand
The spell of the freight train that's calling her man
My daddy is a preacher, my mother teaches school
My brother is a doctor and me I'm a fool
