Hobo's Lullaby Lyrics

Woody Guthrie

Go to sleep you weary hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Can't you hear the steel rails hummin'? That's the hobo's lullaby
I know your clothes are torn and ragged And your hair is turning gray Lift your head and smile at trouble You'll find peace and rest someday
Now don't you worry 'bout tomorrow Let tomorrow come and go Tonight you're in a nice warm boxcar Safe from all that wind and snow
I know the police cause you trouble They cause trouble everywhere But when you die and go to Heaven You'll find no policemen there
So go to sleep you weary hobo Let the towns drift slowly by Listen to the steel rails hummin' That's a hobo's lullaby
