Hobo's Lullaby
o go to sleep you weary hobolay back, lay back and close your eyesI know you've seen a lot of sorrowI know you've heard a lot of lies they said, "work hard and save your money"you were a worker all your lifeand in the end who got the honeybut the hand that robbed the hive?it's a hard bargain they drive goodbye, goodbye to main streetgoodbye, company townand who can say how far awaythis wayward train is bound and though the hounds come round your doorwayand though the viper's at your heelwell you can dream your rags to richeson a stitch of gleaming steelon a shining reel-to-reel goodbye, goodbye to state streetgoodbye, capitol groundsand who can say how far awaythis wayward train is bound?
