All around the water tanks

Waiting for a train

A thousand miles away from home

Sleepin' in the rain

I walked up to a brakeman

To give him a line of talk

He said if you've got money
D7 D G
I'll see that you don't walk

I haven't got a nickel
F E E7
Not a penny can I show

Get off, get off, you railroad bum
D7 G C
And he slammed that boxcar door

[Verse 4]
C7
He put me off in Texas
F C
A state I dearly love
F C
The wide open spaces all around me
D7 G7
And the moon and the stars above
[Verse 5]
C C7
Nobody seems to want me
F C
Or lend me a helpin' hand
F C
I'm on my way from Frisco Bay
Dm G7
Headin' back to Dixieland
[Verse 6]
C C7
My pocketbook is empty
F E E7
And my heart is filled with pain
F C Am
I'm a thousand miles away from home
D7 G C
Waiting for a train
[Outro]
