Hobo Blues
Got a hole in my pocket, I've done packed my ol' knapsack
I got a train to catch a mile on down the track
Well, I've been hangin' around this old town way too many days
I got to ramble on, I must be on my way
I got the Hobo Blues…
I gotta go, gotta go, God, I got the Hobo Blues
And when I hear that whistle moan, son
I gotta move, gotta move, God, I got the Hobo Blues
Well, some women try to hold me, but I keep on movin' on
My hat don't hang nowhere for too long
Cause I'm caught up in the feeling of that singin' brakeman's song
I got the Hobo Blues deep down in my bones
I got the Hobo Blues…
I gotta go, gotta go, God, I got the Hobo Blues
And when I hear that whistle moan, son
I gotta move, gotta move, God, I got the Hobo Blues
When I die, won't you bury me in an old box car
With a coffee can and my old guitar
But make sure that I'm close enough to hear that passin' train
I got the freight train fever chuggin' through my veins
I got the Hobo Blues…
I gotta go, gotta go, God, I got the Hobo Blues
And when I hear that whistle moan, son
I gotta move, gotta move, God, I got the Hobo Blues
And when I hear that whistle moan, son
I gotta move, gotta move, God, I got the Hobo Blues

Re: Hobo Blues
Colors spotty but nice and fashionably late this year.
100 miles of that will make one truly appreciate a good sip and sup.
I hope to demonstrate someday soon. Mo' better with others along.

It's too deep, this is a bike not a canoe.

Re: Hobo Blues
One watershed north of the loop we made.
Same coal company. New and different site. One helluva long haul road.
Colors are muted and late this year for a plethora of meteorological happenin's starting with a July drought.
