[Verse 1]
D G
Well I was sittin in a hobo jungle when I overheard some old heads tellin
D
their tales
E A
Bout the glory days and the things they done while ridin on the western rails
D G D
and the stories they told were the kind that aint never gonna leave my head
E
One after another with their spirits high you couldn't be leive what they
A
said
[Chorus]
D A
I well I did backflips in a huricane while riding on an oil tank
D E A
Road a trucker train in to an army complex road out with a corporal rank
D G
and while ridin through the santa fe tunnel on an open box car wrestled me a
D
bear
E A
Juggled chainsaws on that F E C while breathin the florida air
[Verse 2]
D G
So I drank me another and I leaned in closer as the stories started heating
D
up
E A
but I dare not sit with these big dogs still for I was but a railroad pup
D G D
And the stories got swift and crazy as the men got fire in their eyes
E A
And the stories they told from this point on would lay any to their demise
[Chorus]
D A
I fought off 15 bulls in the Baldwin yard with my hands tied behind my back
D E A
Caught a train on the fly going 45 with 38 40s in my pack
D G D
Made a pot of noodles in a unit unseen while the engineer was there
E A
and by the way I held back on that story before I was wrestlin 15 bears
[Chorus]
D G
So if you hop trains Kid and you got a story well you best just save your
D
breath
E
Cause when it comes to railroad memoirs I've heard the best of the best of
A
the best
D G D
Theese old heads got a tale for every line and every single yard
E A
So if you want to impress me nowadays well its gonna be really hard
[Chorus]
D A
Unless you Hopped through Alaska in the dead of winter in shorts with no
sleepingbag
D E A
Or laid your eyes on every one of those old texeno tags
