Go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the town drift slowly by
Listen to the steel rails humming
Well that's the hobo's lullaby
Do not think about tomorrow
Let tomorrow come and go
Tonight you have a nice warm boxcar
Free from all the rain and snow
So go to sleep you weary hobo
And let the town drift slowly by
Listen to the steel rails humming
Well that's the hobo's lullaby
I know the police cause you trouble
They make trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to heaven
Well you will find no police there
So go to sleep you weary hobo
And let the town drift slowly by
Listen to the steel rails humming
Well that's the hobo's lullaby
Now do not let your heart be troubled
If the world calls you a bum
Cause if you mother lived she'd love you
Well you are still your mother's son
So go to sleep you weary hobo
And let the town drift slowly by
Listen to the steel rails humming
Well that's the hobo's lullaby
That's the hobo's lullaby
