歌词
All around the water tank
Waiting for a train
A thousand miles away from home
Sleeping in the rain
I walked up to a brakeman
Just to give him a line of talk
He said If you got money boy
Ill see that you dont walk
I havent got a nickel
Not a penny can I show
Get off get off you railroad bum
And slammed the boxcar door
He put me off in Texas a state I dearly love
The wide open spaces all around me
The moon and the stars up above
Nobody seems to want me
Or lend me a helping hand
I'm on my way from Frisco
Going back to Dixieland
My pocket book is empty and my heart is full of pain
I'm a thousand miles away from home
Just waiting for a train
