Blues Are A Good Man Feelin’ Bad (Larry W. Jones 08/27/2007) (song#4883)

Well, I’m hoppin’ a freight train
Headin’ for another town
There’s nothin’ good here to gain
Just sadness hangin’ around

Oh, now the blues, they ain’t nothin’
That many a good man ain’t had
Hobos told me about hurtin’
Blues are a good man feelin’ bad

I never asked that woman for a favor
I can’t believe how she put me down
Being a hobo might be a life saver
I’m takin’ this freight train out of town

– instrumental –

I never asked that woman for a favor
I can’t believe how she put me down
Being a hobo might be a life saver
I’m takin’ this freight train out of town


I’m gonna ride this old B & O
Up that old Chicago railroad track
I’m feelin’ so put down and put low
That I just might never set foot back

Oh, now the blues, they ain’t nothin’
That many a good man ain’t had
Hobos told me about hurtin’
Blues are a good man feelin’ bad

Oh yeah, hobos told me about hurtin’
Blues are just a good man feelin’ so bad
