Waiting for a Train
Lyricist:Jimmie Rodgers
All around the water tanks Waiting for a train A thousand miles away from home Sleeping in the rain
I walked up to a brake-man To give him a line of talk He said, 'If you've got money I'll see that you don't walk'
I haven't got a nickel Not a penny can I show 'Get off, get off, you railroad bum' And he slammed that boxcar door
He put me off in Texas The place I dearly love Wide open spaces all around me The moon and stars up above
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Nobody seemed to want me Or lend me a helping hand I'm on my way from Frisco I'm going back to Dixieland
Though my pocketbook is empty And my heart is full of pain I'm a thousand miles away from home Waiting for a train
Nobody seemed to want me Or lend me a helping hand I'm on my way from Frisco I'm going back to Dixieland
Though my pocketbook is empty And my heart is full of pain I'm a thousand miles away from home Waiting for a train
