Titel: Hobo's Lullaby
Artist: Goebel Reeves
Album: Folk And The Roots
Of American Music - Part 1 (2012)
(Goebel Reeves)
Orig. F#
G C
Go to sleep you weary hobo
D7 G
Let the towns drift slowly by
C
Listen to the steel rail humming
D7 G
That's the hobo's lullaby
G C
Now do not think about tomorrow
D7 G
Let tomorrow come and go
C
Tonight you have a nice warm boxcar
D7 G
Safe from all the rain and snow
G C
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
D7 G
And your hair is flecked with grey
C
Lift your chin and smile at trouble
D7 G
You'll have peace and rest some day
G C
Now do not let your heart be troubled
D7 G
If the world calls you a bum;
C
If your mother lives, she'd love you
D7 G
For you're still your mother's son.
G C
I know the police cause you trouble
D7 G
They make trouble everywhere
C
But when you die and go to heaven
D7 G
You'll find no policemen there
G C
And when you die and go to heaven
D7 G
All the trains there you can ride
C
The hard boiled brakeman and the hobo
D7 G
Sleep there peaceful side by side
G C
So go to sleep you weary hobo
D7 G
Let the towns drift slowly by
C
Listen to the steel rail humming
D7 G
That's the hobo's lullaby
