Waiting For A Train - Gene Autry

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
