Billy Bragg — Hobos Lullaby

[Intro] [Chorus] Go to sleep, you weary hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Can't you hear the steel rails hummin? That's a hobo's lullaby [Verse 1] I know your clothes are torn and ragged And your hair is turning grey But, lift your head and smile at trouble You'll find peace and rest someday [Verse 2] Don't you worry about tomorrow Let tomorrow come and go Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar Safe from all that wind and snow [Verse 3] Well I know the police caused you trouble They cause trouble everywhere But when you die and go to heaven You'll find no policeman there [Chorus] So go to sleep, you weary hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Can't you hear the steel rails hummin? That's a hobo's lullaby Can't you hear the steel rails hummin? That's a hobo's lullaby
