Billy Walker

Billy Walker - Waiting For A Train lyrics

rate me

All around the water tank waiting for a train

A thousand miles away from home standing in the rain

I walked up to a brakeman to hand him a line of talk

He says if you've got money Bill I'll see that you don't walk

I haven't got a nickel not a penny can I show

Get off get off you railroad bum and he slammed the boxcar door

He put me off in Texas a state I dearly love

The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars above

Nobody seems to want me or lend me a helping hand

I'm on my way from Frisco going back to Dixieland

My pocketbook is empty and my heart is full of pain

I'm a thousand miles away from home just a waiting for a train
