Freight Train Boogie by The Louvin Brothers Lyrics

Casey Jones, he was a mighty man
But now he's resting in the promised land
The kind of music he could understand
Was an eight-wheel driver under his command

He made a freight train boogie all the time
He made the freight train boogie as he rolled down the line

When that fireman started ringing the bell
Everybody on the lines could tell
Casey Jones, he was a-comin' to town
On a six eight-wheeler that was burnin' the ground

He made the freight train boogie all the time
He made the freight train boogie as he rolled down the line

The Delmore Brothers was a mighty team
They could play the boogie and sing like a dream
They rocked this nation with a brand new beat
When the "Freight Train Boogie" got 'em on their feet
They played "The Freight Train Boogie" all the time
They played "The Fright Train Boogie" and rolled down the line
