Hobo's Lullaby
Embracing Tranquility: A Hobo's Journey through Life's Trials
Lyrics
o to sleep you weary hobo
To sleep, tired homeless person
Let the towns drift slowly by
Allow the towns to pass slowly
Can't you hear the steel rail humming
Can't you perceive the sound of the steel railway vibrating
That's a hobo's lullaby
That's a lullaby for a hobo
Do not think about tomorrow
Do not dwell on the future
Let tomorrow come and go
Let tomorrow happen and pass
Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar
Tonight, you're in a comfortable boxcar
Safe from all the wind and snow
Protected from the wind and snow
I know the police cause you trouble
I'm aware that the police bother you
They cause trouble everywhere
They cause issues everywhere
But when you die and go to heaven
But when you pass away and reach heaven
You won't find no policemen there
You won't encounter any policemen there
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
I understand your clothes are worn out and tattered
And your hair is turning grey
And your hair is turning gray
Lift your head and smile at trouble
Raise your head and confront troubles with a smile
You'll find happiness some day
You'll discover happiness someday
So go to sleep you weary hobo
So go to sleep, tired homeless person
Let the towns drift slowly by
Allow the towns to pass slowly
Don't you feel the steel rail humming
Can't you sense the vibration of the steel railway
That's a hobo's lullaby
That's a lullaby for a hobo
