Chatham County Line - Louisiana Freight Train lyrics
It was a hot Mobile night Comments boiled into a fight 'Til her face she held in her hands She took off her ring Said, "What joy did you bring? A love as counterfeit as the ore in this band." Louisiana freight train on my mind Let these steel wheels roll me across the parish line She should've left a long time ago Stopped at hello She should've walked by the day that we met But here we stand, my ring still on her hand With no way to make her forget Louisiana freight train on my mind Let these steel wheels roll me across the parish line Did you ever hear that whistle moan? Be into New Orleans before daylight (x2) I left her just a note, black as the ink with which it was wrote Said, "My body'll take a river boat and a cannon to find." But on that freight box I was bound To the land Cortes had found Wife thinking she'd been widowed behind Louisiana freight train on my mind Let these steel wheels roll me across the parish line My woman she cried (cried) "Why'd my man have to die?" (die) She don't know that it's a lie Louisiana freight train on my mind Let these steel wheels roll me across the parish line |
