Hobo’s Meditation
By Merle Haggard  written by Jimmie Rodgers  [3/4 time]
 
C            G7       C
Tonight as I lay on a boxcar 
F                                C
Just waiting for a train to pass by
F                       C
What will become of the hobo 
D7                          G7
Whenever that time comes to die
 
C                 G7        C
Has the Master up yonder in heaven 
F                                  C
Got a place that we might call our home
F                          C
Will we have to work for a living 
D7        G7          C
Or can we continue to roam
 
                  G7                C
Will there be any freight trains in heaven 
F                             C
Any boxcars in which we might hide
F                                C
Will there be any tough cops and brakemen 
D7                          G7
Will they tell us we cannot ride
 
C             G7                 C
Will the hobo chum with the rich man 
F                            E7
Will we always have money to spare
F                            C
Will they have respect for a hobo 
                 G7             C
In the land that lies hidden up there
 
Repeat #3 & 4
