Where Have All The Hobos Gone - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

The silver rails have lost their shine

They’re just a victim of our time

They might as well rust in the rain

What good’s a track without a train?

Where have all the hobos gone?

I never knew if they even had a home

So Lord, if you have turned your back

You might as well take up the track

I’d love to hear a whistle whine

And just ride a boxcar one more time

So Lord, if you’re still on my side

You’ll send me one more train to ride

Where have all the hobos gone?

I never knew if they even had a home

So Lord, if you have turned your back

You might as well take up the track

So Lord if you’re still on my side

You’ll send me one more train to ride
