A Railroad Bum

[Verse 1]
  C                                
I used to be a railroad bum 
         G
a-livin' on the go
I rode freights from Canada down to 
    C
Mexico
From sunny Cal to Minnesota where 
                    G
the rippling waters fall
I never seemed to have a dime but I 
G7           C
had myself a ball

[Chorus]
                                G
Singin' hi le hi lo he li le li lo
I used to be a railroad bum but I'm 
       C
not anymore

[Verse 2]
I walked in the Silver Dollar in 
         G
Reno one night

I Dropped a quarter in a one armed 
                            C
bandit, the lemons lined up right
Took my winnings then played poker 
                       G
and I won ten thousand more
                                G7 
I used to be a railroad bum but I'm
        C
 not anymore

[Chorus]
                                G
Singin' hi le hi lo he li le li lo
I used to be a railroad bum but I'm 
       C
not anymore

[Verse 3]
     C                             
When cotton's white in Tennessee 
                       G
and shrimp boats sail in Maine
Peach picking time soon will find me
                    C
 ridin' the Georgia train
Cause I get restless when I'm still 
                 G
I guess I always will
Want to keep travelin' all my life 
G7           C
over another hill

[Chorus]
                                G
Singin' hi le hi lo he li le li lo
                                G7 
I used to be a railroad bum but I'm
        C
 not anymore

[Chorus]
                                G
Singin' hi le hi lo he li le li lo
I used to be a railroad bum but I'm 
       C
not anymore
