Hobo's Lullaby

Hobo's Lullaby - Pete Seeger

Go to sleep you weary hobo

Let the towns drift slowly by

Can't you hear the steel rails humming

That's the hobo's lullaby

I know your clothes are torn and ragged

And your hair is turning gray

Lift your head and smile at trouble

You'll find peace and rest some day

So go to sleep you weary hobo

Let the towns drift slowly by

Can't you hear the steel rails humming

That's the hobo's lullaby

I Don't you worry about tomorrow

Let tomorrow come and go

Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar

Safe from all the wind and snow

So go to sleep you weary hobo

Let the towns drift slowly by

Can't you hear the steel rails humming

That's the hobo's lullaby

I know the police cause you trouble

They cause trouble everywhere

But when you die and go to heaven

There'll be no policemen there

So go to sleep you weary hobo

Let the towns drift slowly by

Can't you hear the steel rails humming

That's the hobo's lullaby

Go to sleep you weary hobo

Let the towns drift slowly by

Can't you hear the steel rails humming

That's the hobo's lullaby
