Hobo's Lullaby

Hey, go to sleep you weary hobo
Hey, let the towns go drifting by Hey, can’t you hear the steel rail humming?
Well, that’s a hobo’s lullaby
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
Hey, and your hair is turning gray
Hey, lift your head and smile at trouble
Hey, you’ll find peace and rest some day
Now go to sleep you weary hobo
Hey, let the towns drift slowly by Hey, can’t you hear the steel rail humming?
Hey, that’s a hobo’s lullaby
My, don’t you worry about tomorrow
Just let tomorrow come and go
'Cause tonight you’re in a nice warm boxcar
Hey, safe from all that wind and snow
Now go to sleep you weary hobo
Hey, let the towns drift slowly by Hey, can’t you hear the steel rail humming?
Hey, that’s a hobo’s lullaby
Hey, I know police they cause you trouble
Hey, they cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to heaven
You’ll find no policemen there
So go to sleep you weary hobo
Hey, let the towns drift slowly by Hey, can’t you hear the steel rail humming?
Hey, that’s a hobo’s lullaby
Hey, now go to sleep you weary hobo
Hey, let the towns drift slowly by Can’t you hear the steel rail humming?
Well, that’s a hobo’s lullaby
