Folks in Nashville slammed the door said
We don't want you anymore
Find your own way down the road
Pack your fiddle and your guitar
Take a train or take a car
Find someone else to keep you from the cold
Rollin and ramblin women loved him half to death
Sang with whiskey on his breath
His heart broke like a child
Rollin and ramblin
The sun had set out on the trail
Hobos drifted up the rails he's taken his last ride
Oh, he always sang the blues like it was all he ever knew
He didn't sing at all at night
He was pale and as he dozed
He didn't know his time had closed
Slumped in the back seat to the right
Rollin and ramblin women loved him half to death
Sang with whiskey on his breath
His heart broke like a child
Rollin and ramblin
The sun had set out on the trail
Hobos drifted up the rails he's taken his last ride
So they sent him on a night train south
In the cities and the rural routes
Just one more place to go
Ah the whistles sang the bluest note
like it came from his own throat
Moaning sad and cryin low
Rollin and ramblin women loved him half to death
Sang with whiskey on his breath
His heart broke like a child
Rollin and ramblin
The sun had set out on the trail
Hobos drifted up the rails he's taken his last ride
