G 
Go to sleep, you weary hobo
A 
D 
Let the towns drift slowly by
G 
Listen to the steel rails humming
A 
D 
That's the hobo's lullaby,
G 
now do not think about tomorrow,
A 
D 
let tomorrow come and go.
G 
Tonight you'll have a nice warm boxcar,
A 
D 
safe from all the rain and snow, I know.
G 
Your clothes are torn and ragged,
A 
D 
and your hair is tweaked with grey.
G 
Lift your chin and smile at trouble,
A 
D 
you'll have peace and rest some day.
G 
now do, not let your heart be troubled.
A 
D 
If the world calls you a bum,
G 
if your mother lives she'd love you,
A 
D 
for you're still your mother's son,
I know.
G 
The police cause you trouble
A 
they make trouble everywhere
D 
G 
but when you die and go to heaven
A 
you'll find no policeman there
D 
G 
and when you die and go to heaven
A 
D 
All the trains there you can ride,
G 
The hard -boiled brakemen and the hobos,
A 
D 
Sleep there peaceful side by side,
G 
So go to sleep, you weary hobos.
A 
D 
Let the towns drift slowly by,
G 
Listen to the steel rails humming,
A 
That's the whole boat lullaby.
