Railroad Song (Live)

RailRoad Song - Lynyrd Skynyrd

I jumped off a boxcar down around Tennessee

I was cold tired and dirty hungry as I could be

But I had my guitar and a hundred railroad songs

So I asked the policeman

Can I stay here long

He said Mr Hobo you got to go now

We don't want you around

See I'm trying to build me a respectable town

So we don't need a hobo like you hanging around

So I left that town Lord with my guitar in my hand

Still cold and tired kinda mad at the man

But this life that I chose to live sometime's strange

See I'm trying to learn about the old music from ridin' the train

I'm a hobo I know but that's the price I pay

Guess I'll write me another song while I'm on my way

I'm okay get's me another train and this is what I'll say

Mr Choo-choo train take me away

Choo-choo train

Well I'm goin' to ride this train Lord until I find out

What Jimmie Rogers and the hag was all about

I play this rock 'n' roll I think that's fine

But I like to go back 'lone a little further in time

I'm a hobo I know but that's the price I pay

Guess I'll write me another song while I'm on my way at home

Get me a great train this is what I'll say

Mr Choo-choo train

Choo-choo train
