[Lyric] Waiting For A Train (Stonewall Jackson)

All around the water tank
A-waiting 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
Well 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
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
My pocketbook is empty
And my heart is filled with pain
I'm a thousand miles away from home
Just a-waiting for a train
