I`m just a passenger
on this old freight train
I ride the boxcar
through the night
I doesn`t matter
where I might get off
I doesn`t matter where I lie.
I`ve been to cities,
I`ve been to countries
I`ve left a lover in many towns
I don`t care if
I ever get back to
Where I`d already been around.
I`m like an eagle,
I like to fly high
I`m like a snake,
I like to lay low
I`m like a black man,
I`m like a white man
Maybe a red man, I don`t know.
I`m just a passenger
on this old freight train
I ride the boxcar
through the night
I doesn`t matter
where I might get off
I doesn`t matter where I lie.
