Gene Autry — Waiting For A Train lyrics

Lyrics

All around the water tank, waiting for a train A thousand miles away from home,
sleeping in the rain I walked up to a brakeman to give him a line of talk He says: If you?
ve got money, I?
ll see that you don?
t walk I haven?
t got a nickel, not a penny can I show He said: Get off, you railroad bum and
slammed the boxcar door He put me off in Texas, a place I surely love Wide open
spaces?
round me, the moon and stars above Nobody seems to want me or lend me a helping
hand I?
m on my way from Frisco, goin?
back to Dixie Land My pocket book is empty and my heart is filled with pain I?
m a 1000 miles away from home just waiting for a train
