Lyrics

I'm going down to the fright yard, that's where the trains come rolling in.
I'm going down to the fright yard baby that's where the big trains rolling in
I'm gonna ride me the rails just like old Bobby Dylan did.
I'm gonna ride me the rails just like Woody Guthrie did.




I might go west to California, I might go south to new Orleans
I might go west to California I might go south to new Orleans
I might go north to Chicago or south to Nashville Tennessee.


I'm gonna drink from that bottle, I might drink that bottle down.
I'm gonna drink from that bottle, I might drink that bottle down.
I gonna roll me some reefers, I might smoke them reefers down.
