Let the towns drift slowly by
They cause trouble everywhere
You won't find no policemen there
Can't you hear the steel rail humming
I know the police cause you trouble
That's a hobo's lullaby
You'll find happiness some day
Don't you feel the steel rail humming
But when you die and go to heaven
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
Let tomorrow come and go
Do not think about tomorrow
Let the towns drift slowly by
Go to sleep you weary hobo
And your hair is turning grey

That's a hobo's lullaby
Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar
Lift your head and smile at trouble
Safe from all the wind and snow
So go to sleep you weary hobo
