Stonewall Jackson - Waiting for a Train lyrics

All around the water tank a waitin' for a train I'm a thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain I walked up to the brakeman just to give him a line of talk But he said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk Well, I haven't got a nickel not one penny can I show Get off get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door They put me off in Texas a place I dearly love The wide open spaces all around me and the moon and stars above Nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand I'm on my way from Frisco going back to Dixie Land Yes, my pocketbook is empty and my heart is filled with pain I'm a thousand miles away from home just a waitin' for a train
