Paroles de Waiting for a train

All around the water tank waitin' for a train
A thousand miles away from home sleepin' in the rain
I walked up to a brakeman to give him a line of talk
He said 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
Get off get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door
( guitar )
He put me off in texas it's a place i dearly love
With the wide open spaces all around me and the moon and stars up above
Nobody seems to want me or lend me a helpin' hand
I'm on my way from frisco goin' back to dixie land
My pocketbook is empty and my heart is full of pain
I'm a thousand miles away from home just a waitin' for a train
