The silver rails have lost their shine
|
They're just the victims of our time
|
They might as well rust in the rain
|
What good's a track without a train.
|
|
Where have all the hoboes gone
|
I never knew they even had a home
|
So Lord if you have turned your back
|
You might as well take off the track.
|
|
I love to hear a whistle whin
|
Just ride a boxcar one more time
|
So Lord if you're still on my side
|
You'll send me one more train to ride.
|
|
Where have all the hoboes gone
|
I never knew they even had a home
|
So Lord if you have turned your back
|
You might as well take off the track.
|
|
Hm, hmm, so Lord if you're still on my side
|
You'll send me one more train to ride...
