As I listen for the whistle, lie and wait Wish the didn't run so near the rattle and clatter of that old fast freight Keeps on music in my ear, go bum again, go bum again, ooh
Hear the whistle blow, hear the blow Clickety clack, clickety clack, the are saying to the railroad track Well, if you go, you can't come back, well if you go, you come back if you go, you can't come back, if you go, you can't come back If you go, you come back
misheard byJCvP It's not "pulse are beatin' It's "pulse a-beatin" And there is NO EXPLICIT LANGUAGE. In this song, "bum" means a person who work for a living, and… See all Well, I wouldn't give a nickel for the bum I use to be as hard as any man in town I got a pretty gal, she the world of me Man be a fool to let her down, go bum again, go bum again, ooh
Hear the whistle blow, the whistle blow clack, clickety clack, the wheels are saying to the railroad track Well, if you go, you come back, well if you go, you can't come back Well if you go, you can't come back, if you go, you can't come If you go, you can't back
So every night I listen, if it's late In my dreams I'm on that train I feel my are beatin' with that old fast freight And the Lord I'm just a bum again, go bum again, go bum again, ooh
Hear the whistle blow, the whistle blow Clickety clack, clickety clack, the wheels are to the railroad track Well, if you go, you can't back, well if you go, you can't come back Well if you go, you can't come back, if you go, you can't come If you go, you can't come
