The Hobo Song

Lyrics:

• Too late to feel sorrow
• Too late to feel pain
• Hes just an old hobo
• Lost out in the rain


• Hell never cause trouble
• So dont have no fear
• Hes just an old hobo
• And hell soon be far away from here


• Chorus
• He used to be a gambling man just like you
• Until he sank so low that there was
• Nothing that no one could do
• He used to be a gambling man just like you
• Until he sank so low that there was
• Nothing that no one could do


• Oh, don't make him ask you
• Dont make him beg
• He was a war hero
• And thats how he hurt his leg


• He killed thirty injuns
• With one cannon ball
• Now hes just an old hobo
• Asleep out in the hall


• [chorus]


• A wife and five children
• Who live in L.A.
• They miss their dear daddy
• Whos gone so far away
• They still have his picture
• Its a-hung on the wall
• Now hes just an old hobo
• Asleep out in the hall


• [chorus]


• He used to be a gambling man just like you
• Until he sank so low that there was
• Nothing that no one could do
