Hoboin' - Steve Young

When I first started hoboin'

'Boin', 'boin'

You know I took a freight train

To be my friend

Oh, when I first started hoboin'

I had a lonesome freight train

For my friend

I said I’m gonna hobo, hobo

Mmmm…

You know what I hobo’d, hobo’d

I hobo’d a long way from my home

Don’t you know that I hobo’d

I hobo’d a long way from my home

I said «well it’s hard to be a hobo

Ah, while alone»

Mmmm…

Yes you know my mama followed me down

In the still of the mornin'

Oh, just to show that she cared

You know my mama followed me down

In the still of the mornin'

Yeah, just to show that she cared

She said «you know that my child is a hobo

Ah-huh, in a well somewhere»

Mmmm…
