Gary D,
Here is one of the songs you seek. I extracted this from
Cowpie, a wonderful site for C & W style music.
WAITING FOR A TRAIN
words and music by Jimmie Rodgers
1929
F C7 F F7
All around the water tank
Bb Bbm F
Waiting for a train
Bb F Dm
A thousand miles away from home
G7 C7
Sleeping in the rain
F C7 F
I walked up to a brakeman
F7 Bb Bbm F
To give him a line of talk
Bb F
He says, "If you've got money
G7 C7 F
I'll see that you don't walk."
C7 F
I haven't got a nickel
F7 Bb A7
Not a penny can I show
Bb F
He said, "Get off, you railroad bum."
G7 C7 F
And he slammed the box car door
(yodel)
F C7 F C7 F
C7 F C7 F
He put me off in Texas
F7 Bb Bbm F
A place I surely love
Bb F
Wide open spaces 'round me
G7 C7
The moon and stars above
F C7 F
Nobody seems to want me
F7 Bb Bbm F
Or lend me a helping hand
Bb F
I'm on my way from Frisco
G7 C7 F
Goin' back to Dixieland
C7 F
My pocket book is empty
F7 Bb A7
And my heart is filled with pain
Bb F
I'm a thousand miles away from home
G7 C7 F
Just waiting for a train
(yodel)
F C7 F C7 F
