Hobo Blues

When I first got in the hoboin', hoboin' boy

I took a freight train to be my friend

Oh yeah, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Well I hoboed, I hoboed

Hoboed a great long way from home

Oh yeah, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Well my mother, she followed me that mornin'

, Me that mornin', me that mornin'

Followed me down to the yard

Oh yeah, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

She said my son, he's gone, Lord, he's gone, he's gone

Yes he's gone, is, what, somewhere?

Oh yeah, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm

Well I left my dear old mother, my dear old ma, my dear old ma

She was on her knees a-cryin'

Oh yeah, mmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
