"Hobo's Lullaby" lyrics

"Hobo's Lullaby"
(originally by Goebel Reeves)

Go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Can't you hear the steel rails hummin'
That's the hobo's lullaby

I know the police cause you trouble
They cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to Heaven
You'll find no policemen there

Go to sleep you weary hobo
Let the towns drift slowly by
Can't you hear the steel rails hummin'
That's the hobo's lullaby

Can't you hear the steel rails hummin'
That's the hobo's lullaby
