Verse 1
bandana on a stick
He travels late so he can get lost quick
A
It's all he needs and it's all he owns
E
Ain't got no family, ain't got no home
B
They call the troll and the tramp
A beggar and a bum
But he's not a single one
with a hole in his shoe
A
Just a lonesome hobo and
With that bindle sack, he's on the fly
Probably live that way until the day he dies
A
Call him what you want,
he'll keep chugging ahead
E
The only home he knows is
A
E
that old ton of lead
B
He's a vagabond, a wayfaring soul
Baug
A
Only time he feels at home
is when he's on a roll
E
He's a lonesome hobo with
so much to see and do
A
Just a lonesome hobo and
Brown paper bag, bottle of liquid heat
And a cheap cigar stuck between his teeth
A
Got a gravelly voice, got scraggly hair
E
He's got a big beer belly,
but he just don't care
B
When he's high on spirits,
he keeps his profile low
Baug
A
Never cries when he's dry,
hungry, or cold
never means to be rude
Hasn't held a steady job since
he got back from the war
He's too proud to beg,
so he's always too poor
he was born to roam.
E
He can tell funny stories till
the cows come home.
but most of the time he plays.
Baug
A
Somehow he gets by without
a penny to his name.
E
He's a lonesome hobo on
his way to somewhere new.
A
Just a lonesome hobo and he's
E
A
E
got the blues.
B
A
E
Once he had a woman but
she flew the coop
Now it's newspaper
blankets and mulligan
stew
Through
A
Rocky
Mountains and
Midwest farms
E
Rolling on the tracks until
he's back in her arms
B
He gets cold cause he's old but
the soup bowl's free
A
sleeps under stars or when it rains a pine
E
tree he's a lonesome hobo finding
A
ways to make do just a lonesome hobo and
E
he's got the blues with a sideways view
his destination's unknown trees fly by but
A
his bird has flown on track on
E
schedule going nowhere fast as he crosses
the ties on the rails of his past
B
had his share of hard luck his share of handouts
Baug
A
he may be down but never down
E
and now he's a lonesome hobo who always
A
B
pulls through just a lonesome hobo and
E
he's got the blues pops a train at night
jumps a ride all day across the
great divide, prairies and plains.
A
The boxcar gets him where
he wants to go,
E
and deep down inside he's
got a heart of gold.
B
Never believed in the devil,
never believed in
A
God, but he's too scared to steal,
borrow, cheat, or rob.
E
He's a lonesome hobo, never graced a
He's just a lonesome hobo
and he's got the blues
He's had a ragged life,
all ripped and torn
He's been that way since
the day he was born
it runs out of steam
E
The whistle wakes him up from
crazy hobo dreams
B
He's been no stranger to trouble
or telling white lies
A
Someday he's gonna catch the
West, bound to die.
a little like me and you.
E
Just a lonesome hobo, and he's got the blues.
