D-DU-UDU
 Tonight  as I  lay on the boxcar
 Just  waiting  for a train to pass by
 What  will become  of the hobo
 Whenever  his  turn comes to die
 There's  a Master  up yonder in Heaven
   flat
 Got a place that we might call our home
 Willl  we have  to  work for a living
 Or can  we continue  to roam
 Will there  be  any freight  trains in Heaven
 Any  boxcars in which  we might hide
 Will  there be any  tough cops or brakemen
 Will  they tell us  that we cannot ride
 Will the  hobo  chum  with the rich man
   flat
 Will we always have money to spare
 Will  they have respect  for the hobo
 In that  land  that  lies hidden up there
 REPEAT THE ABOVE
 ?
