The Hobo

David Kirby, Glenn Martin

[Verse 1]
You might find me in most any railroad depot
But not standing where the paying people are
I'll be busy making reservations
For a first class ticket on a cabin car

[Chorus]
But you'll never find this hobo in an airport
'Cause I ain't found out how to hitch a plane
But if you want to see a master working
Just stand back and watch this hobo catch a train

[Verse 2]
You might find me dining late some evening
But not in a cafe with a fancy name
And I won't be eating steak from Kansas City
But a can of beans cooked on an open flame

[Chorus]
But you'll never find this hobo in an airport
'Cause I ain't found out how to hitch a plane
But if you want to see a master working
Just stand back and watch this hobo catch a train

[Verse 3]
Once a year, I gather with my brothers
Praying for the good of all mankind
And if you listen close, you'll hear me singing
Those Salvation Army songs at Christmastime

[Bridge]
"Shall we gather at the river"

[Chorus]
But you'll never find this hobo in an airport
'Cause I ain't found out how to hitch a plane
But if you want to see a master working
Just stand back and watch this hobo catch a train
