Kasey Chambers ~ Freight Train


Well I just came down from Chippewa I had a station wagon and a hundred dollars I was thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a year before I hadn't seen her for some time I thought that I might go on by When your memory came floodin' in And you closed that door [CHORUS:] Wish I was a freight train baby Wish I was a diesel locomotive I'd come whistlin' down your track Crashin' in your door Wish I was a freight train baby Wish I didn't have a heart And you'd need a shovel for the coal Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train baby Wish I was a freight train Well every time I talk to you And I hear your jealous lies I feel like I've been left abandoned On some old railway side And every time I hear your voice My water just gets cold My stoker will not stoke And my boiler will not boil [CHORUS] Well every time I fell behind And I could not get ahead I wish someone would pull the lever And give me a little sand And every time I slip behind Even further back I wish some switchman would come out of the fog And change my track Wish I was a freight train baby Wish I was a diesel locomotive I'd come whistlin' down your track Crashin' in your door Wish I was a freight train baby Wish I didn't have a heart And you'd need a shovel for the coal Just to get me started Wish I was a freight train baby Wish I was a freight train . . . more free lyrics

Well I just came down from Chippewa
I had a station wagon and a hundred dollars
I was thinkin' about the girl I'd lost a year before
I hadn't seen her for some time
I thought that I might go on by
When your memory came floodin' in
And you closed that door

[CHORUS:]

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
I'd come whistlin' down your track
Crashin' in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn't have a heart
And you'd need a shovel for the coal
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train

Well every time I talk to you
And I hear your jealous lies
I feel like I've been left abandoned
On some old railway side
And every time I hear your voice
My water just gets cold
My stoker will not stoke
And my boiler will not boil

[CHORUS]

Well every time I fell behind
And I could not get ahead
I wish someone would pull the lever
And give me a little sand
And every time I slip behind
Even further back
I wish some switchman would come out of the fog
And change my track

Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a diesel locomotive
I'd come whistlin' down your track
Crashin' in your door
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I didn't have a heart
And you'd need a shovel for the coal
Just to get me started
Wish I was a freight train baby
Wish I was a freight train . . .

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
