lyrics

Freight train won’t you let us by?
We are 13 hours behind
I’m in no rush but bear in mind,
Please get us home some time

Freight train won’t you let us by?
We are 20 hours behind
Get out and walk the track should I?
Please do keep us in mind

Black birds, deer herds, little towns I’ve never seen
One track, haystacks, white snow glistening
I am listening to everything I see
I am listening to everyone I meet

And just as I’m about to
And just as I’m about to
Just as I’m about to pray this never ends
Just as I’m about to pray this never ends
We stop again…

Freight train won’t you let us by?
We are 40 hours behind
Your cargo’s worth more than our time
Do keep us in mind
Please get us home some time
