The Foreign Arm - Freight Trains Lyrics

We're movin' like freight trains
It's hard to maintain
I'm pulling all this heaviness in tow
It's not just the small things
The trouble that you bring
The cargo that you're carrying is

Oh
Just a little too heavy
Oh
And I'm not ready
Oh
Gotta keep this thing steady baby
Oh Oh
Oh
Just a little too heavy
Oh
And I'm not ready
Oh
Gotta keep this thing steady baby
Oh Oh

You were a sweet suitor
With finesse and mystique
I failed to see the luggage that was waiting at your feet
You had such strong shoulders
For carrying a heavy load
Thought you would take me further
Now I'm draggin' you on

Oh
Just a little too heavy
Oh
And I'm not ready
Oh
Gotta keep this thing steady baby
Oh Oh
Oh
Just a little too heavy
Oh
And I'm not ready
Oh
Gotta keep this thing steady baby
Oh Oh

You face me straight on
Smile bright and eyes alight with wit
Though I see that rucksack on your back all filled up to the brim
Please don't make me explain
I know you've got a great brain
But my freight train only holds my weight
So I must refrain

Oh
Just a little too heavy
Oh
And I'm not ready
Oh
Gotta keep this thing steady baby
Oh Oh
Oh
Just a little too heavy
Oh
And I'm not ready
Oh
Gotta keep this thing steady baby
Oh Oh

We're movin' like freight trains
It's hard to maintain
I'm pulling all this heaviness in tow
It's not just the small things
The trouble that you bring
The cargo that you're carrying is
The cargo that you're carrying is
The cargo that you're carrying is
The cargo that you're carrying is
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
