Print Version


A long black engine keeps a rollin' along its wheels goin' clickety-clack

She's carryin' me to war that eastern seaboard Louisiana I ain't comin' back

And I sit all alone in an empty box listen to the engine roar

And I see the world that she oughta be seen through a crack in the boxcar door

[ guitar ]

A hobo's life is a lonely life and I'm restless son of a gun

So I'll keep a riding these ribbons of steel and wait for my setting sun

And I sit all alone...

[ guitar ]

The engineer is pullin' her down and I reckon we ain't goin' to stop

And I'll be a dodgin' the man that sticks I hear him a walkin' on top

And I sit all alone...

[ guitar ]

Most folks think I'm a crazy man at all of hoboes like me

But I let the bottle that holds all the world and I'll die happy and free

And I reckon I'll die in an empty box listen to the engine roar

I'll take the last long look at ther world that I love

Through a crack in thin boxcar door

I'll take the last long look...

  • Rhumba Boogie
    "Well come all you children give a listen to me let me tell you bout a new boogie beat

    It's the Rhumba Boogie down the South American way
    While Madame Lozonga was teachin' La Conga in her little cabana in old Havana..."
  • Im Movin On
    "That big eight-wheeler rollin' down the track
    Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't comin' back
    'Cause I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
    You were flyin' too high, for my little old sky..."
  • The Golden Rocket
    "I was a good engine a-runnin' on time

  • Unwanted Sign Upon Your Heart

    Can't see, honey, why you done me wrong

    I can't sleep a wink..."
  • Music Makin Mama from Memphis
    "Listen to a story about a gal I know
    She's my music makin' mama, I'm her hillbilly beau
    She's sweeter than the music when she tickles the strings
    Sweeter than the flowers down in New Orleans..."
  • The Gold Rush Is Over
    "Oh! the gold rush is over so honey bye bye
    Stake out your claim now on some other guy
    I've wined you and dined you 'til my money is gone
    But the gold rush is over and the bum's rush is on..."

    All my teardrops are dried
    No more walkin' the floor
    With that burnin' inside..."
  • Would You Mind
