Waitin For A Train |
| All around the water tank waiting for a train |
| A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain |
| I walked up to a brakeman gave him a line of talk |
| He said if you’ve got money boy 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 the boxcar door |
| He put me off in Texas a state I dearly love |
| The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars up above |
| Nobody seems to want me or to lend me a helping hand |
| I’m on my way from Frisco going back to Dixie Land |
| Though my pocketbook is empty and my heart is full of pain |
| I’m a thousand miles away from home just a waiting for a train |
