When I first thought to hobo'in, hobo'in |
|
I took a freight train to be my friend, oh Lord |
|
You know I hobo'd, hobo'd, hobo'd, hobo'd |
|
Hobo'd a long, long way from home, oh Lord |
|
Yes, my mother followed me that mornin', me that mornin', boy |
|
She followed me down to the yard, oh yeah |
|
She said, "My son he's gone, he's gone, he's gone |
|
Yes, he's gone in a poor some wear, oh yeah" |
|
Yes, I left my dear old mother, dear old mother |
|
I left my honor, need a crime, oh Lord |
|
Take care of my child |
|
Take care, take care of my child |
