Hobo s Lullaby chords
Arlo Guthrie (Goebel Reeves) to the tune of Just Before The Battle Mother by George F. Root 1862
Capo I *
2x
Go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Can t you hear the steel rail humming
That s a hobo s lullaby
Do not think about tomorrow
Let tomorrow come and go
Tonight you re in a nice warm boxcar
Safe from all the wind and snow
I know the police cause you trouble
They cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to heaven
You won t find no policemen there
I know your clothes are torn and ragged
And your hair is turning grey
Lift your head and smile at trouble
You ll find happiness some day
So go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Don t you feel the steel rail humming
That s a hobo s lullaby
* Alternate:
Capo IV
