Tekster: John Denver. Waiting for a Train.

All around the water tower
Waiting for a train
Thousand miles away from home
Sleeping in the rain

I walked up to a brakeman
Just to give him a line of talk
He said if you?ve got money
I?ll see that you don?t walk

Well, I haven?t got a nickel
Not a penny can I show
Get off, get off you, railroad bum
He slammed that boxcar door

Well, he put me off in Texas
A state I dearly love
The wide open spaces all around me
The moon and stars up above

Nobody seems to want me
Nor to lend me a helping hand
I?m on my way from Frisco
Going back to Dixieland

My pocketbook is empty
My heart is full of pain
I?m a thousand miles away from home
Just waiting for a train
