Well, I woke up this morning, it was drizzling rain.
Around the bend came a passenger train.
Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan.
Jimmy, he's dead, he's been a long time gone,
Been a long time gone, a long time gone.

If you want to get to heaven, gotta D-I-E
gotta put on your coat and T-I-E
Wanna get the rabbit out of L-O-G
You gotty make a cool motion like a D-O-G
like a D-O-G, like a D-O-G, yeah.

instrumental solo

Well, I got a good woman, what's the matter with me?
What makes me wanna love every woman I see?
I was traveling when I met her, now I'm traveling again.
And every woman I see looks like the place I came in.
Looks like the place I came in, the place I came in.

I got my name printed on my shirt.
I ain't no ordinary dude, I don't have to work,
I don't have to work
I don't have to work...
