Two Hoboes
Richard Weissman, Lawrence Gellert
[Verse 1]
Railroad looks so pretty (Ooh, ooh)
Moonlight's on the track
Yonder come two hoboes
With a rucksack on their back
Well, it's oh, babe (Ooh, ooh)
No home, babe
[Verse 2]
Work on the Georgia road gang (Ooh, ooh)
Ninety days in the county jail
Run away from that ball and chain
With the hound dogs on their trail
Well, it's oh, babe (Ooh, ooh)
No home, babe
[Verse 3]
Clothes all torn to pieces (Ooh, ooh)
Nobody knows their name
Yes, they've travelled through a thousand towns
And they all look just the same
Well, it's oh, babe (Ooh, ooh)
No home, babe
[Verse 4]
When you're broke and hungry (Ooh, ooh)
It's hard to keep the law
Rode all the way from New Orleans
Back to Arkansas
Well, it's oh, babe (Ooh, ooh)
No home, babe
[Outro]
