Lynyrd Skynyrd - Railroad Song Lyrics
(ed king - ronnie vanzant)I jumped off a boxcar down around tennesseeI was cold tired and dirty hungry as I could beBut I had my guitar and a hundred railroad songsSo I asked the policemanCan I stay here longHe said mr. hobo you got to go nowWe dont want you aroundSee Im trying to build a respectable townAnd we dont need a hobo like you aroundSo I left that town, lord with my guitar in my handStill cold and tired, kinda mad at the manBut this life that I chose to live, sometimes strangeSee Im trying to learn about the old music from ridin the trainIm a hobo I know, but thtas the price I payGuess Ill write me another song while Im on my wayCatch me another train and this is what Ill sayMr choo-choo train take me awayIm goin to ride this train lord until I find outWhat jimmie rogers and the hag was all aboutSee I play this rock n roll and I think thats fineBut I wnta to go back a little further in timeIm a hobo I know but thats the price I payGuess Ill write me another song while Im on my wayCatch me another train and this is what Ill sayMr choo-choo train take me away
