Sublime très bien joué j'ai bien aimé le style sublime de ce morceau d'anthologie.
Le jeu guitare tu n'est pas à la portée de tous bravos au musicien.

Good rendition of it - maybe a bit too agresive though coz this song by Liz was very laid back. Play it more slowly and you would nail it.
Peace

I think it is impossible to play the song like she did, just because she was left-handed and played with a right-handed guitar without changing the strings. Anyway.. Great song, great playing!

I love this song so much, but it's taking me so long to learn it! How long did it take you?

Not possible, she's from 1892
Not that is matters but Elizabeth was 12 in 1907 when she wrote Freight Train. But what is even more amazing is that for this little song about a train passing by her home to still be played over 100 hundred years later is a tribute to her talent. A self taught little girl playing left handed, just amazing!

This isn't Libba Cotten's version.
