Lynyrd Skynyrd - Railroad Song lyrics
[Lynyrd Skynyrd - Railroad Song lyrics]
I was cold
Tired and dirty hungry as I could be
But, I had my guitar and
A hundred railroad songs
So I asked the policeman
Can I stay here long
He said Mr hobo you got to go now
We don't want you around
See I'm trying to build me a respectable town
And we don't need a hobo
Like you hangin' around
So I left that town, Lord
Had my guitar in my hand
Still cold and tired, kinda mad at the man
But this life that I chose to live
Sometimes is strange
See I'm trying to learn about the
Old music from riding the train
I'm a hobo I know, but that's the price I pay
Guess I'll write me another song
While I'm on my way
I'm-a catch me another train and
This is what I'll say
Mr choo-choo train, take me away
Choo-choo train
Well I'm-a ride this train Lord
Until I find out
What Jimmie Rodgers and the Hag was all about
See I, I play this rock n roll
I think that's fine but, I'd like to go back
A little further in time
I'm a hobo I know, but that's the price I pay
Guess I'll write me another song
While I'm on my way
Catch me another train and this
Is what I'll say mr choo-choo train
Choo-choo train
