Well, early one morning it begin to rain
‘Round the corner come a pa**enger train
On the bumper was Hobo John
He's a good old rounder, but he's dead and gone
He's dead and gone, dead and gone
He's a good old rounder, but he's dead and gone
Now, Charlie Snyder was a good engineer
Told his fireman not to fear
All he wanted was a water and a coal
Stick your head out the window, see the drivers roll
See the drivers roll, drivers roll
Stick your head out the window, see the drivers roll
Now, Jay Gould's Daughter said before she died
One more road that I'd like to ride
Now, tell me daughter what can it be
Said Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe
And the Santa Fe, the Santa Fe
Yes, the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe
Now, Jay Gould's Daughter said before she died
One more drink that I'd like to try
Now, tell me daughter what can it be
She said, a gla** of water and a cup of tea
And a cup of tea, a cup of tea
A gla** of water and a cup of tea
Well, early one morning it begin to rain
‘Round the corner come a pa**enger train
On the bumper was Hobo John
He's a good old rounder, but he's dead and gone
He's dead and gone, dead and gone
He's a good old rounder, but he's dead and gone
