Van Morrison Freight Train Lyrics

Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
I don't know what train I'm on
Won't you tell me, 'fore I'm gone
Ba da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Lost his reason, lost his life, killed his friend in mortal strength
Must have moved like the rolling skies
Just a-waitin' until he dies
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
When he dies, just bury him please
Way down at the end of Chestnut Street
Pop a stone at his head and feet
And tell them he's gone to sleep
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
I don't know what train I'm on
Won't you tell me, before I'm gone Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
I don't know what train I'm on
Won't you tell me, before I'm gone
Ba da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
Freight train, freight train, goin' so fast
I don't know what train I'm on
Won't you tell me, before I'm gone
Ba da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Ba da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Tell me before I'm gone
Ba da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Won't you tell me before I'm gone
Ba da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Won't you tell me before I'm gone
Yeah, Freight train
