C                       F 
Go to sleep you weary hobo

G7                         C
Let the towns drift slowly by

C                             F
Can't you hear the steel rail humming

G7              C
That's a hobo's lullaby



C                   F
Do not think about tomorrow

G7                    C
Let tomorrow come and go

C                             F
Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar

G7                         C
Safe from all the wind and snow



C                       F 
Go to sleep you weary hobo

G7                         C
Let the towns drift slowly by

C                             F
Can't you hear the steel rail humming

G7              C
That's a hobo's lullaby



C                                F
I know your clothes are torn and ragged

G7                       C
And your hair is turning grey

C                           F
Lift your head and smile at trouble

G7                        C
You'll find happiness someday



C                       F 
Go to sleep you weary hobo

G7                         C
Let the towns drift slowly by

C                             F
Can't you hear the steel rail humming

G7              C
That's a hobo's lullaby
