D A Folks in Nashville slammed the door said D We don't want you anymore A D Find your own way down the road D A Pack your fiddle and your guitar D Take a train or take a car D A D Find someone else to keep you from the cold G D Rollin and ramblin women loved him half to death D A Sang with whiskey on his breath D D7 His heart broke like a child G Rollin and ramblin D The sun had set out on the trail A D A D Hobos drifted up the rails he's taken his last ride D A D Oh, he always sang the blues like it was all he ever knew A D He didn't sing at all at night A He was pale and as he dozed D He didn't know his time had closed D A D Slumped in the back seat to the right G D Rollin and ramblin women loved him half to death D A Sang with whiskey on his breath D D7 His heart broke like a child G Rollin and ramblin D The sun had set out on the trail A D A D Hobos drifted up the rails he's taken his last ride D A So they sent him on a night train south D In the cities and the rural routes A D Just one more place to go A Ah the whistles sang the bluest note D like it came from his own throat D A D Moaning sad and cryin low G D Rollin and ramblin women loved him half to death D A Sang with whiskey on his breath D D7 His heart broke like a child G Rollin and ramblin D The sun had set out on the trail A D Hobos drifted up the rails he's taken his last ride
