[Verse 1]
[G]All [D]around the

I [G]walked up [D]to a [G]brakeman
[C]gave him a line of [G]talk
[C]He said if you've got [G]money boy
I'll [A]see that you don't [D]walk
I [G]haven't [D]got a [G]nickel not
a [C]penny can I [G]show
Get [C]off get off you [G]rail[D]road [Em]bum a[A]nd he slammed the [D]boxcar d[G]oor

He [G]put me [D]off in [G]Texas [C]a state I dearly [G]love

[G]Nobody [D]seems to wan[G]t me or
