Hobo's Meditation
Tonight as I lay on a boxcar
Just waiting for a train to pass by
What will become of the hobo
Whenever his time comes to die?
Has the Master up yonder in heaven
Got a place that we might call our home
Will we have to work for a livin'
Or can we continue to roam?
Will there be any freight trains in heaven
Any boxcars in which we might hide
Will there be any tough cops or brakemen
Will they tell us that we cannot ride.
Will the hobo chum with the rich man
Will we always have money to spare
Will they have respect for a hobo
In that land that lies hidden up there?
--- Instrumental ---
Will there be any freight trains in heaven
Any boxcars in which we might hide
Will there be any tough cops or brakemen
Will they tell us that we cannot ride.
Will the hobo chum with the rich man
Will we always have money to spare
Will they have respect for a hobo
In that land that lies hidden up there?...
Just waiting for a train to pass by
What will become of the hobo
Whenever his time comes to die?
Has the Master up yonder in heaven
Got a place that we might call our home
Will we have to work for a livin'
Or can we continue to roam?
Will there be any freight trains in heaven
Any boxcars in which we might hide
Will there be any tough cops or brakemen
Will they tell us that we cannot ride.
Will the hobo chum with the rich man
Will we always have money to spare
Will they have respect for a hobo
In that land that lies hidden up there?
--- Instrumental ---
Will there be any freight trains in heaven
Any boxcars in which we might hide
Will there be any tough cops or brakemen
Will they tell us that we cannot ride.
Will the hobo chum with the rich man
Will we always have money to spare
Will they have respect for a hobo
In that land that lies hidden up there?...
