LYRICS

All around the water tank, waitin' for a train. A thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain. I walked up to a brakeman, just to give him a line of talk, He said: ?If you've got money, I'll see that you don't walk.? ?Well I haven't got a nickel, not a penny can I show.? He said: ?Get off, you railroad bum.? And he slammed the boxcar door. [ piano ] Well he put me off in Texas, a place I dearly love. The wide open spaces all around me, the moon and stars above; Nobody seems to want me, or lend me a helping hand. I'm on my way from Frisco, headin' back to Dixie Land. My pocketbook is empty, my heart is filled with pain. I'm a thousand miles away from home, just waitin' for a train.
