E
Sleepin’ on trains
B7
Sleepin’ on trains
B7
Some folks may think it strange
E
Sleepin’ on trains
A
I don’t know where I’ll wake
E
The only cryin’ shame
E B7
Be back from where I came
E
Sleepin’ on trains

I’ve met some losers
I met some boozers
Sleepin’ on trains
You don’t know what ya got
A man might get stabbed
Another might get shot
But it gets you where you’re goin’
Sleepin’ on trains

When the box car stops
I don’t know where I am
But the brakeman calls the shots
So I let him make my plans
Free ticket anywhere
And it’s better here than there
So that’s just where I’ll stay
’Til I’m sleepin’ on a train

Sleepin’ on trains
Dream a little dream
‘Bout places I ain’t seen
Sleepin’ on trains
Ask me where I’m bound
Sleepin’ on trains
Lost and never found
Sleepin’ on trains

I wake up to the blues
The cops say, “Whatcha got?”
I say, “The life I choose… and some dirty old socks”
Wanderlost I roam
Every stop is my new home
You’ll know when I hit the trail
By the hummin’ of the rails…
