Dickey Lee - Waiting For A Train lyrics

All around the water tank waitin' for a train A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain I walked up to the brakeman and give him a line of talk He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk I haven't got a nickel not one penny can I show Get off get off you railroad bum and he slammed that boxcar door (yodel) [ dobro ] He put me off in Texas a place I dearly love Wide open spaces all around me and the moon and stars up above Well nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand I'm on my way from Frisco going back to Dixie Land Though my pocketbook is empty and my heart is full of pain I'm a thousand miles away from home waitin' for a train (yodel)
