Waiting For A Train Lyrics - Blue Yodels - Jimmie Rodgers

All around the water tank, waiting for a train 

A thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain 

I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk 

He said "If you got money, boy, I'll see that you don't walk 

I haven't got a nickel, not a penny can I show 

"Get off, get off, you railroad bum" and slammed the boxcar door 

 

He put me off in Texas, a state I dearly love 

The wide open spaces all around me, the moon and the stars up above 

Nobody seems to want me, or lend me a helping hand 

I'm on my way from Frisco, going back to Dixieland 

My pocket book is empty and my heart is full of pain 

I'm a thousand miles away from home just waiting for a train
