Hobo Blues Lyrics

When I first thought to hobo, hobo, hobo
I took a freight train to be my friend, oh Lord
You know I hobo, hobo
You know I hobo, hobo a long way from home, oh yeah

You know, my mother followed me that mornin'
Followed me that mornin', boy
She followed me down yonder, oh yeah
She said my son he'd gone, he'd gone, he's gone
Yes he's gone a long way in the world somewhere

Yes I left my dear old mother, dear old mother
I left her down on her knees, on her knees cryin', oh Lord
She said, "Take care of my child
Take care of my child
Take care of my child"

When I thought to hobo, hobo, hobo
I took a freight train to be my friend
Be my friend, oh Lord
You know I hobo, hobo, hobo, a long way from home

You know, my mama followed me that mornin'
Me that mornin', boy
She followed me down yonder, oh yeah
She said my son he'd gone, my son he'd gone
He'd gone in the world somewhere

Left my mother, my dear old mother
Left her down on her knees cryin', Lord, yeah
She said, "Take care of my child"
She said, "Take care of my child"
She said, "Take care of my child"
