Freight train

Elizabeth Cotten

[Chorus:]
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
And they won't know where I've gone

[Interlude (Spoken): Elizabeth Mitchell & Dan Zanes]
Hey, Dan, where do you want to go on the train today?
I'd like to visit our friends in Brooklyn today
That's a great idea, let's go to Brooklyn, okay?
Okay

Goin' to Brooklyn, goin' so fast
Goin' to Brooklyn, goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
And they won't know where I've gone

[Interlude (Spoken): Elizabeth Mitchell & Dan Zanes]
Well, that was fun! Where should we go now?
Why don't we go visit your sister in California?
That's a great idea, I love California, but it's so far away, we've gotta speed up, okay?
Okay
Faster!

Goin' to California, goin' so fast
Goin' to California, goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
And they won't know where I've gone

[Interlude (Spoken): Elizabeth Mitchell & Dan Zanes]
Well, I liked going fast. Where do you want to go now?
Why don't we go visit Jojo?
All the way at Africa?
Yeah
Well, we're gonna have to go so fast to get there before it gets dark, okay?
That's right

Goin' to Africa, goin' so fast
Goin' to Africa, goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
And they won't know where I've gone

[Interlude (Spoken): Elizabeth Mitchell & Dan Zanes]
That was really fast!
We went to a lot of places
I'm tired!
I'm really tired, too
I think I'm gonna go ahead and go to bed
I think that's a good idea, it's time to go to sleep
I'll see you tomorrow
Okay
Goodbye!
Bye!

[Chorus:]
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Please don't tell what train I'm on
And they won't know where I've gone
