Anya Mia - Freight Train

I was born in a city on the dark side of the moon
And my daddy was a ghost, an empty closet in my room
Every night, I'd hear my momma cry
Jagged tears that cut at the air
And the sound of the freight train
Going to nowhere
And the sound of the freight train
Rolling to nowhere

When I was a young girl, all the boys used to come around
They caught the scent of a woman in me, the heat that comes from under the ground
But I was born with my daddy's heart
And I stayed ice-cold inside
And every night I'd hear the freight train whistle
Calling me down the line
Every night I'd hear the freight train whistle
Calling me down the line

You say you want to love me
But my heart can't be true
There's a hole, straight through my soul
Where the wind comes howling through

Now I work in a barroom, where I smile and tell pretty lies
And they can still smell the woman in me, I can tell by the look in their eyes
I put their coins in my pocket
That's as close as they'll get to me
Cause my heart is like a freight train
It keeps on moving to stay free
My soul is like a freight train
It keeps on moving to stay free
