When I first started a'hoboin', a freight train was my only friend
When I first started hoboin', a freight train was my only friend
But next time I hobo, oh boy, gonna have my baby by my side
[Can't talk to her own?] mother, she won't have to worry no more
Mmm, Lord have mercy, baby
Don't make my mother cry
I ain't gonna hobo after this time, ain't gonna hobo no more
Oh but I am!
Have mercy!
The road is so rough!
I said, Lord have mercy, I ain't gonna hobo no more, baby
Mmm, baby, honey, child, I an't gonna hobo no more
So many nights baby, you know we was all alone
