Artist/Band: John Denver
Lyrics for Song: Waiting For A Train
Lyrics for Album: All Aboard [1997]



All around the water tower

Waiting for a train

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 I show

Get off, get off you, railroad bum

He slammed that boxcar door



Well, he put me off in Texas

A state I dearly love

The wide open spaces all around me

The moon and stars up above



Nobody 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
