| [00:08.59] |
All around the water tank waitin' for a train |
| [00:16.70] |
A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain |
| [00:24.80] |
I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk |
| [00:32.93] |
He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk |
| [00:40.92] |
Well I haven't got a nickel not a penny can I show |
| [00:49.10] |
He said get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door |
| [00:57.26] |
|
| [01:05.43] |
Well he put me off in Texas a state I dearly love |
| [01:12.89] |
The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars above |
| [01:21.62] |
Nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand |
| [01:29.82] |
I'm on my way from Frisco headin' back to Dixie Land |
| [01:37.96] |
My pocketbook is empty my heart is full of pain |
| [01:46.16] |
I'm a thousand miles away from home waitin' for a train |
| [01:54.32] |
