Old 97's - Hobo Christmas Song Lyrics

Old 97's Lyrics

"Hobo Christmas Song"

(All aboard!)

Snow falls
Out in the railyard morning
Finds the hobos warming by the fire
Weary brothers form a hobo choir

Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
So we sing our hobo Christmas song

Townsfolk
All locked up in their houses
Us hobos living outside 'neath the stars
Cold but happy right here where we are

Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
And so we sing our hobo Christmas song

Yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee

Snow falls
Out in the railyard morning
Finds the hobos warming by the fire
Weary brothers form a hobo choir

Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
So we sing our hobo Christmas song

Yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee

Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
So we sing our hobo Christmas song
So we sing our hobo Christmas song
