Kingston Trio – Hobo's Lullaby lyrics

Album: Time to Think

Goebel Reeves
Chorus:
Go to sleep, you weary hobo. Watch the towns go drifting by. Can't you hear the rails a-singin'? 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 some day.
(Chorus)
Don't you worry about tomorrow. Let tomorrows come and go.
Tonight you've got a nice, warm boxcar, free from all the wind and snow.
(Chorus)
I know the police cause you trouble. They cause trouble everywhere,
But when you die and go to heaven, there'll be no policemen there.
(Chorus)
Can't you hear the rails a-singin', ooh? That's the hobo's lullaby.
