## Lyrics



Woke up in Dakota, going to sleep in Caroline
Woke up in Dakota, going to sleep in Caroline
This freight train's my companion, running down the line

Can't stay in one place, got restlessness in my bones
Can't stay in one place, got restlessness in my bones
Every town's the same town, everywhere feels like home

Left a girl in Kansas, another one in Tennessee
Left a girl in Kansas, another one in Tennessee
They all wanted something that I could never be

Freight train rolling, rolling through the night
Freight train rolling, everything's all right
Steel wheels spinning, taking me from sight
Freight train rolling, rolling out of sight

Boxcar's cold and empty, but it's freedom all the same
Boxcar's cold and empty, but it's freedom all the same
No responsibilities, nobody knows my name

Freight train rolling, rolling through the night
Freight train rolling, everything's all right
Steel wheels spinning, taking me from sight
Freight train rolling, rolling out of sight

Maybe someday I'll find a reason just to stay
But until that morning comes, I'm rolling away
Hear that whistle blowing, calling out my name
Freight train's always rolling, and I'm doing the same

Rolling, rolling, never gonna change
