Hobo Cartoon |
Wish I was riding the steam train, right out of the pages of time |
Down through the ol' Roaring Twenties, to the fall of 1929 |
Back in heyday of railroads, before airplanes fluttered and flew |
Color me in like a cartoon hobo doing what bums used to do |
Songs from the great Jimmy Rogers |
Hearing ol' Bing Crosby croon |
This is a song of how things used to be |
A script of a hobo cartoon |
Show me hopping a freight train, somewhere south of the yard |
Make it a Santa Fe boxcar, paint all rusty and hard |
Sketch out an old hobo jungle, make it come alive on the page |
Build an old shack, down on the track weathr it heavy with age |
Songs from the grat Jimmy Rogers |
Hearing ol' Bing Crosby croon |
This is a song of how things used to be |
And a script of a hobo cartoon |
Sometimes things are great to remember, some are too good to forget |
Things back then were so different, some things we think of them yet |
Songs from the great Jimmy Rogers |
Hearing ol' Bing Crosby croon |
This is a song of how things used to be |
And a script of a hobo cartoon |
