Charley Pride - Spell Of The Freight Train Lyrics

The wild birds are flying high wild and free

Whatever calls the wild birds is calling to me

The spell of the freight train got in my blood one day

I'm always going never get nowhere I'm just on my way

My baby she loves me but she don't understand

The spell of the freight train that's calling her man

[ ac.guitar ]

My daddy is a preacher my mother teaches school

My brother is a doctor and me I'm a fool

The spell of the freight train is stronger than wine

That same lonesome whistle that chills my darling's heart is calling mine

My baby she loves me...
