Railroads, Hoboes And Cowboys
Sing that song about the railroads, sing that song about those old boxcars. How they rumble, how they ramble - across the plains, through this land of ours. Oh, the brakeman he's so faithful - keeping his eye right on the line.
Chorus 1:And singing songs about railroads, before they're gone, before they're gone. And singing songs about railroads, before they're gone - before they're gone.
Sing that song about the hoboes, sing a song about those restless men. With their whiskey and their tattered clothes - they'll do a job for a day or so. See them gather 'round the campfire, doin' a jig for Old Man Moon
Chorus 2: And singing songs about hoboes, before they're gone, before they're gone. Now, sing that song about the cowboys, sing a song about those western men.
Get along you little doggies - tall in the saddle in the dusty wind
They keep a cheerful disposition, riding underneath the stars.
Chorus 3: And singing songs about cowboys, before they're gone, before they're gone.
We all have our myths and legends, we all have our precious childhood dreams. And the promise of a new day - keeps us hoping for a better way. Like the brakemen and the hoboes - like those cowboys way out west.
Chorus 4: We sing our songs about living - 'fore we're gone, before we're gone.
