Oh no
Oh shucks
It's the freight train
The dozy trucks
Forty tonnes of empty chrome
The lights are on but nobody's home
Here they come to fill our station
With witty sparkling conversation
Freight is great (that's brilliant)
Freight is great (don't you wish you thought of that)
We carry weight, 'cause we are freight
And freight is great (it's so profound)
We never make a fuss
We got the goods on us
We take the loads
From off the roads
And freight
Is great
Listen to what the coach says
Couldn't stand
Gravel and sand
Being ignored
No one aboard
Nobody complaining
We were late again
I should hate
Carrying freight
No body, living in me
Got to be a living breathing passenger train
Freight
Is great
Freight
Is great
Couldn't stand (freight)
Gravel and sand
Being ignored
No one aboard (is great)
Nobody complaining
We were late again
I should hate (we carry weight)
Carrying freight
No body, living in me (and freight is great)
Got to be a living breathing passenger train
It's mamas and papas
It's commerce and hoppers
It's daughters and sons
It's quarters and tonnes
They get in your hair
It's the fun of the fair
Freight, folks, tares, fares
Passengers, commuters and mail
Trees and meat
Gravel and shale
Freight
Are great
Are great
Control, control
You trucks and coaches just cut it out
Trucks will identify themselves
Fuel trucks
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm Porter, I carry coal
Night and day
That's my role
I'm lumbered with timber
Timber's good
You got coal
I got wood
I'm oily
Sleek and quick
Guess that's why they call me slick
Freight
Is great
So don't tell us no more oil
That's so unkind
I'm refined
And we'd like to remind you
We power the world
Whatever the weather
Until you get your act together
Freight
Are great
Are great
Are great
Are
