Hobo Jungle |
| There was a chill that night in the hobo jungle |
| Over the train yard lay a smooth coat of frost |
| And although nobody here really knows where they’re goin' |
| At the very same time nobody’s lost |
| Then the fire went out and the night grew still |
| This old man lay frozen on the cold, cold ground |
| He was a stray bird and the road was his callin' |
| Ridin' the rods |
| Sleepin' under the stars |
| Playin' the harp from a rollin' box car |
| She attended the fun’ral in the hobo jungle |
| Long were they lovers though never could they wed |
| Drifters and rounders, oooh, and distant friends |
| Here I lie without anger or regret |
| I’m in no one’s debt |
| Man goes nowhere |
| Ev’rything comes like tomorrow |
| But she took that last ride there by his side |
| He spent his whole life pursuing the horizon |
| Ridin' the rods |
| Sleepin' under the stars |
| Playin' the harp from a rollin' box car |
