Hobo’s Lullaby Lyrics by The Wainwright Sisters

Songs in the Dark

0

Go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Can't you hear the steel rails hummin'
That's the hobo's lullaby
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
And your hair is turning gray
Lift your head and smile at trouble
You'll find peace and rest someday
Now don't you worry 'bout tomorrow
Let tomorrow come and go
Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar
Safe from all that wind and snow
I know the police cause you trouble
They cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to heaven
You'll find no policemen there
So go to sleep you weary hobo
Let thе towns drift slowly by
Listen to the steel rails hummin'
That's a hobo's lullaby
