Lyrics:
I lost all my money
In a crooked poker game
Now I'm going home
On this old freight train
I got the boxcar blues
Shuffle on down the tracks
(Shuffle,
I lost all my money
In a crooked poker game
Now I'm going home
On this old freight train
I got the boxcar blues
Shuffle on down the tracks
(Shuffle,
going for the going,
Just going for the going.
Well what's his name boys?
Did you get the name boys?
Well what's his name
Boxcar Willie Jones.
Boxcar
a memory
This boxcar's cold and windy and the dust
Goes around in circles in the air
But my hard times are behind me and
I'm returnin' home so I don't care
In the Arizona Desert lived a man named Boxcar Joe
Never meant no harm to no one, not a dime had he to show
Forty-thousand miles there
she said, "Come back again."
I watched them lonesome boxcar wheels
Turnin' down the tracks out of town
And it's on that lonesome railroad track
I'm
Josie girl wait by the tracks to catch Your dreams
Boxcar girl, watch her twirl
Boxcar girl
She meets a man at the Star Motel
Bar
They smoke
and scratching for every dime
Till he threw it in and he kilt the road to walk that endless line
Now he's The Last Hobo
Riding the last boxcar
On the last
left she said, "Come back again"
I watched them lonesome boxcar wheels
Turnin' down the tracks out of town
And it's on that lonesome railroad track
she said, "Come back again."
I watched them lonesome boxcar wheels
Turnin' down the tracks out of town
And it's on that lonesome railroad track
I'm
she said, "Come back again."
I watched them lonesome boxcar wheels
Turnin' down the tracks out of town
And it's on that lonesome railroad track
I'm
I'm finna party like a rockstar
Bitch I'm a rock star
Me and all my niggas packing shit just like a boxcar
Running up on us we smoking niggas like
Boxcar's my home, railroad my friend
It's been that way since I don't know when
I'm here today, tomorrow I'm gone
Where I hang my hat is where I call
Boxcar's my home, railroad my friend
It's been that way since I don't know when
I'm here today, tomorrow I'm gone
Where I hang my hat is where I call
off the miles
On the Train of Consequences
My boxcar life of style
My thinking is derailed
I'm tied up to the tracks
The Train of Consequences
There
staged in the boxcar
Are you watching, are you tuning in
Post portrait lies and a lust for the screen
Are you tuning in
We're the monsters caged in

Last night as I lay on the boxcar
Just waiting for a train to pass by
What will become
heartbeat did back then
Baby, hop in, we can take it
Way, way back
Find that no-name road
Cross those boxcar tracks
Where we used to go
And lay it way, way,
a boxcar
She was ashamed that I had been a hobo
She never wanted me to know
That he was a hobo
Now mama was a Christian and
She always read the Bible
She
lonesome whistle moan mama tried
Put my body in a boxcar and send me to the other side
I been singing Waymore's Blues every Saturday night Then amazing grace
the house and sell the farm
But you just can't ride the boxcars anymore
Now everybody's feeling all confused
They went to get their money and they got
Oh no, what to do?
How did I get on this train?
Locked in a boxcar
With the Queen of Spain
"You pour the sweet wine
I'll play the tambourine
story
Learn where it’s been
Up and down
And round the mountain
Time and again
Boxcar jumpin'
My socks got holes in them too
Red light
Stop sign
Jump suit
on the first boxcar out of town
Jump on a moving train slowing down
I'm going to hitch a ride on the first boxcar out of town
Slip out without a sound
Down by
