A—-3—-3—-0—-2—-3—-3—-0—-2—-3—-3---
E---------------------------------


     C                         F             C
Down by the river bottom, in a jungle by the track
       F            C                       D            G
When a hobo jumps a freight train, he ain’t never coming back
   C                                         F               C
My thirst tougher than a rail yard, twice as hard to catch a train
          F                C                   G              C
When your heart is fond of rambling, you gotta hit the rails again

Riff

         C                         F               C
When you ride inside a box car, be careful how you run
      F                   C               D              G
Gotta make sure you don’t wind up on the wrong side of a gun
C                               F             C
One day, someday, maybe, you’ll lead a hobo’s life
F           C            G                 C
Settle in a city, with a gal who’d be your wife

Riff

Sometimes when your ride the rails it gets hard to survive
Sometimes you meet old hobos that are still alive
The stories they tell are many, you can learn a thing or two
Like I learned from my granddad who was a hobo two

Riff

Well, granddad rode the rails back in the good ‘ol days
So when I was a young lad I learned some hobo ways
I learned about white lightning and nether berry wine
And how to make that hobo stew that tasted mighty fine

Riff

So that’s my hobo story, just one of many tales
That I learned from my granddad who really rode the rails
Now granddads up in Heaven, probly riding on a train
If there’s freight trains up in Heaven, he’ll ride a box car once again
