G

G           Am
Go to sleep you weary hobo.
C              G
Let the trains drift slowly by.
D                Am
Don't you hear the steel rail humming?
D          G
That's a hobo's lullaby.

G                Am
I know, your clothes are torn and ragged.
C            G
And your hair is turning grey.
D              Am
Lift your head and smile at trouble.
D               G
You'll find peace and rest someday.

G          Am
Do not think about tomorrow.
C           G
Let tomorrow come and go.
D              Am
Tonight your in a nice warm boxcar.
D            G
Safe from all the wind and snow.

  G            Am
So, go to sleep you weary hobo.
C             G
Let the towns drift slowly by.
D                Am
Don't you feel the steel rail humming?

C         G
That's a hobo's lullaby...
C         G
That's, a hobo's lullaby
