Jerry Lee Lewis Waiting For A Train Lyrics

All around the water tank, waiting for a train
I'm a thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain
I walked up to a brakeman, just to make a line of talk
He said "Son, you've got money, I'll see that you don't walk"
"Well I haven't got a nickel, not a penny can I show"
"Well get off, get off you railroad b__" He slammed the boxcar door

Well he put me off in Texas, a state I dearly love
The wide open s___es all around me Lord, the moon and stars above
My pocketbook is empty, my old heart is filled with pain
I'm one thousand miles away from home and I'm waitin' for a train
