Ragged Ol Hobo

	  		 
 
(D) Rain had grounded (D7) all the planes 
At the (G) airport in Louisville (D) Kentucky 
So I bought me a railroad (D7) ticket 
Had to (G) close a deal in New (D) Orleans 
When a (G) hobo at the track 
Said he's gona ride the rail to (G7) Ari (D) zona   
I had to (Em) fight the (G) tears  
That wailed up in (A7) me 
 
Cause a (Em) ragged ol' (G) hobo 
Is really better off than (D) me 
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo 
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams 
 
(D) Got a new car and  a (D7) house  
And a good ol (G) job in the suburbs of St. (D) Louie 
And the woman in the (D7) gateway  
To the (G) west has made me everything I (D) am 
But (G) this three piece suit is gettin tight 
The walls are closin in down at (G7) the (D) office  
Lord I've (Em) been to (G) cautious 
With all my best laid (A7)plans 
 
Cause a (Em) ragged ol (G) hobo  
Is really better off than (D) me  
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo 
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams 
 
(D) He said son you ought (D7) to come along 
And (G) watch the eagles fly in (D) Arizona 
You'll never see an (D7) eagle fly  
With (G) neon light reflecting off (D) wings 
As he (G) climbed into the box car 
His words echoed back like crashin (G7) thun (D) der  
Lord if (Em) I was (G) younger 
I'd ride me a different (A7) train 
 
Cause a (Em) ragged ol (G) hobo  
Is really better off than (D) me 
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo 
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams 
He ain't nothin but a (G) hobo 
But he's livin his hobo (D) dreams
