Lyrics

[00:17.01] All around the water tank
[00:21.60] Waiting for a train
[00:24.81]
[00:25.69] A thousand miles away from home
[00:30.06] Sleeping in the rain
[00:33.69]
[00:34.68] I walked up to a brakeman
[00:38.06] Just to give him a line of talk
[00:42.13]
[00:43.88] He said If you got money boy
[00:48.00] Ill see that you dont walk
[00:50.56]
[00:52.63] I havent got a nickel
[00:55.50]
[00:56.25] Not a penny can I show
[00:59.44]
[01:01.19] Get off get off you railroad bum
[01:04.38]
[01:05.32] And slammed the boxcar door
[01:14.65]
[01:48.16] He put me off in Texas a state I dearly love
[01:54.79]
[01:56.66] The wide open spaces all around me
[01:59.22]
[02:00.35] The moon and the stars up above
[02:03.35]
[02:05.16] Nobody seems to want me
[02:07.85]
[02:09.04] Or lend me a helping hand
[02:11.66]
[02:13.35] I'm on my way from Frisco
[02:16.03]
[02:17.22] Going back to Dixieland
[02:19.10]
[02:21.66] My pocket book is empty and my heart is full of pain
[02:28.73]
[02:29.92] I'm a thousand miles away from home
[02:33.47]
[02:34.28] Just waiting for a train
