Boxcar Blues

C I lost all my money in a crooked poker game C7 Now I’m going home on this old freight train F C I got the boxcar blues shuffle on down the tracks G7 C I got the boxcar blues and Lord I may never get back C Well I am so lonely I think I could die C7 These ain’t cinders they are tears in my eyes F C I got the boxcar blues shuffle on down the tracks G7 C I got the boxcar blues and Lord I may never get back C I dream of my big baked biscuit in the pan C7 I dream of my woman with another man F C I got the boxcar blues shuffle on down the tracks G7 C I got the boxcar blues and Lord I may never get back C When I get back home I’ll get down on my knees C7 I’ll beg to my woman to have a little mercy please F C I got the boxcar blues shuffle on down the tracks G7 C I got the boxcar blues and Lord I may never get back C Now let me tell you brother it just ain’t so C7 There ain’t no easy life for a bored hobo F C I got the boxcar blues shuffle on down the tracks G7 C I got the boxcar blues and Lord I may never get back C No listen to brother and take my advice C7 Stay away from trains and them loaded dice F C I got the boxcar blues shuffle on down the tracks G7 C You’ll get the boxcar blues and Lord you may never get back G7 C You’ll get the boxcar blues and Lord you may never get back
