All around the water tank waitin' for a train A thousand miles away from home sleepin' in the rain I walked up to a brakeman just to give him a line of talk He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk I haven't got a nickel not a penny can I show Get off get off you railroad bum he slammed the boxcar door [ guitar - steel ] Well he put me off in Texas a state I dearly love The wide open spaces all around me the moon and stars up above Nobody seems to want me or lend me a helping hand I'm on my way from Frisco goin' back to Dixie Land My pocketbook is empty my heart is full of pain I'm a thousand miles away from home waitin' for a train
