Hank Snow - Crack In The Box Car Door Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • A long black engine keeps a rollin' along its wheels goin' clickety-clack
  • She's carryin' me to war that eastern seaboard Louisiana I ain't comin' back
  • And I sit all alone in an empty box listen to the engine roar
  • And I see the world that she oughta be seen through a crack in the boxcar door
  • [ guitar ]
  • A hobo's life is a lonely life and I'm restless son of a gun
  • So I'll keep a riding these ribbons of steel and wait for my setting sun
  • And I sit all alone...
  • [ guitar ]
  • The engineer is pullin' her down and I reckon we ain't goin' to stop
  • And I'll be a dodgin' the man that sticks I hear him a walkin' on top
  • And I sit all alone...
  • [ guitar ]
  • Most folks think I'm a crazy man at all of hoboes like me
  • But I let the bottle that holds all the world and I'll die happy and free
  • And I reckon I'll die in an empty box listen to the engine roar
  • I'll take the last long look at ther world that I love
  • Through a crack in thin boxcar door
  • I'll take the last long look...
