Capo I
Chorus
E A
I've been waitin' on a train song,
E
Been tryin' to find a way
B11no5
To get my git up a goin'
E
To ride the rails today
E7 A
I'll make my home a box car
E
Eat only hobo stew
B11no5
Sleep out 'neath the stars
E
Like them hobos do
Gonna jump that train
Don't care where it takes me
It's only insane
If my brain foresakes me
I've said my farewells
But don't know where I'll go
Just know I'll be there
When I hear the whistle blow
Chorus
Lookin' for the steam
To blow from the stack
Gonna follow that dream
And won't look back
I ain't runnin from no one
Ain't tryin' to hide
I just hear that Bang-chang-lang
And know it's time to ride
Chorus
I'll watch the rural scenes
While I harp a few bars
Over the rivers and streams
To the beat of the rollin cars
Now I sing this song
In parts and bits
And when I am gone.
I'll sing it for
N/C E
