“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 the money
I’ll see that you don’t walk”

I haven’t got a nickel
Not a penny I can show
“Get off, get off, you railroad bum”
He slammed the boxcar door.”
