John Denver Lyrics for Song: Waiting For A Train
 Lyrics for Album: All Aboard [1997]
 
 
 
 7960>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
 
 7960>
