It's stormy tonight The rain's comin' down There's no place for me to go to My gal said goodbye, alone am I With the freight line blues My clothes are all wet Had to crouch in the cold Waitin' by the Sante Fe lines My prides all but gone My hearts torn in two From that woman that left me behind (Refrain) The rain drops keep fallin' And so do my tears Will I hurt her or what will I do All alone on these rails With no train in sight With the freight line blues [Interlude] (Repeat refrain) With the freight line blues
