Hobo's Lullaby
Do not think about tomorrow Let tomorrow come and go Tonight you've got a nice warm boxcar Safe from all the rain and snow So go to sleep, you weary Hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Can't you hear the steel rail hummin'? That's the Hobo's lullaby Oh, I know your clothes are ragged And your hair is turnin' gray Lift your head and smile at trouble You'll find peace of mind someday So go to sleep, you little Hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Tonight you've got a nice warm boxcar That's the Hobo's lullaby I know the police cause you trouble They cause trouble everywhere When you die and go to Heaven There will be no police there So go to sleep, you weary Hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Can you hear the steel rail hummin'? That's the Hobo's lullaby Do not let your heart be troubled If the world calls you a bum 'Cause if your mother lived, she'd love you You are still your mother's son So go to sleep, my weary Hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Can you hear the steel rails hummin'? That's the Hobo's lullaby That's the Hobo's lullaby That's the Hobo's lullaby
