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

Don't you think about tomorrow Let tomorrow come and go Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar Free from all the wind and snow

I know your clothes are torn and tattered And your hair is turning grey But lift your head and smile at trouble You'll find peace and rest someday.

Ps Emmylou Harris does a cracking version!
