Well here I am
A hobo with my hobo's pots and pans
In an Alberta rail yard with
My red-faced hobo friends

Here comes a train east bound
For Nova Scotia shore
It's my last ride my friends
Aren't going to hobo anymore

So long BC Benning
You have been a real good friend
And goodbye Boxcar Willie
I guess I won't see you again

Here comes a train east bound
For Nova Scotia shore
It's my last ride my friends
Aren't going to hobo anymore

No one loves a hobo and I need some love
Yes I'm always so hungry and
I never get enough and no one wants a hobo
Hanging round their doors

Here comes a train east bound
For Nova Scotia shore
It's my last ride my friends
Aren't going to hobo anymore

There's a man in Halifax that will
Give this bum a job
I'll use the money to find
A woman I can love

Here comes a train east bound
For Nova Scotia shore
It's my last ride my friends
Aren't going to hobo anymore
Here comes a train east bound
For Nova Scotia shore
It's my last ride my friends
Aren't going to hobo anymore
