Hoboin’ Songtext
von Tim Hardin

When I first started on my home goin′, home goin', home goin′
You know I took a freight train
I took a freight train to be my friend
I took a freight train to be my one, my only friend, sure 'nough
When I took a freight train to be my friend
I went away, I went away, I went away, away


Now I'm a wayward man
And I, and I remember when
I remember when my mama followed me down
To the railroad yard cryin′ "Lord"
Was my one, my one
My one and only son
I believe he′s a-gone out in the real world
Or somewhere home goin'
Or somewhere home goin′, yeah

Home, home, home goin'
When I first started a home goin′ on my home goin' days
I thought I had so, so, oh
I thought I had so many ways to go
And now I am away, I am away, way, wayward man

I thought I had so, oh, so many ways to go
So many ways
Just five years later and I know
If it wasn′t for my good friends
My good luck and my guitar
I wouldn't be nothin', nothin′ but a home, home goin′ man
Home goin' man
I′m a wayward man
Yes I am
