Big Coal Black Freight Train (Larry W Jones 10/29/2012) (song#6609) Big coal black freight train, rolling down the track My whole world is as dark as your smokestack Roll back again and make your whistle blow I’ve got places I ain’t been but must go Big coal black freight train, don’t leave me behind Cause my leaving here is now on my mind Big coal black freight train, listen to my song You’re my company when I’m so alone My world is dark and I’m so doggone blue So many black miles I’ve ridden with you I know the engineer at your throttle Give me a ride and I’ll share my bottle (instrumental) Big coal black freight train, don’t leave me behind Cause my leaving here is now on my mind Big coal black freight train, listen to my song You’re my company when I’m so alone Big coal black freight train, a hobo I am Roll me straight through the rain to Birmingham Big coal black freight train, my ticket comes free And I sure have enjoyed your company Kingwood Kowboy
