Well here I am, a hobo with my hobo´s pots and pans
In an Alberta rail yard with my red-faced hobo friends

Here comes a train east bound for Nova Scotia shore
It´s my last ride my friends aren´t going to hobo anymore

So long BC Benning, you have been a real good friend
And goodbye Boxcar Willie, I guess I won´t see you again

Here comes a train east bound for Nova Scotia shore
It´s my last ride my friends aren´t going to hobo anymore

No one loves a hobo and I need some love
Yes I´m always so hungry and I never get enough
And no one wants a hobo hanging round their doors

Here comes a train east bound for Nova Scotia shore
It´s my last ride my friends aren´t going to hobo anymore

There´s a man in Halifax that will give this bum a job
I´ll use the money to find a woman I can love

Here comes a train east bound for Nova Scotia shore
It´s my last ride my friends aren´t going to hobo anymore

Here comes a train east bound for Nova Scotia shore
It´s my last ride my friends aren´t going to hobo anymore
