john denver – waiting for a train lyrics
this song was first released on the all aboard! alb-m. it is the only alb-m it has been released on.
all around the water tower
waiting for a train
a thousand miles away from home
sleeping in the rain i walked up to a brakeman
just to give him a line of talk
he said if you’ve got money
i’ll see that you don’t walk
well i haven’t got a nickel
not a penny can 1 show
get off, get off you railroad b-m
and he slammed that boxcar door
well, he put me off in texas
a state i dearly love
the wide open sp-ces all around me
the moon and stars up above
n-body seems to want me
nor to lend me a helping hand
i’m on my way from frisco
going back to dixieland
my pocketbook is empty
my heart is full of pain
i’m a thousand miles away from home
just waiting for a train
words and music by jimmie rodgers
