Well Willie he carried [G] his guitar on [D] his back as he hopped aboard a [A] freight train
[D] And somewhere in [G] the [D] hobo jungle songs [A] of Hank he [D] would sing
Then Willie would sing, [G] dear [D] cheating heart I'm so lonesome I [A] could cry
[D] And when he'd sing [G] you [D] in again not a hobo [A] would have [D] a cry
They say old Willie [G] knew [D] every song that dear old Hank [A] ever wrote
[D] He'd sing them all [G] word [D]
for word and he'd play [A] them note [D] for note
[B]
[E] Willie would sing, [A] dear [E] cold cold heart I'm a hobo campfire [B] each night
[E] And sometimes Willie [A] well he [E] would sing Praise God [B]
I saw [E] the light
Well Willie was known [A] on [E] every line they say he rode every [B] train
His [E] music was a legend [A] among the [E]
hobos and the songs [B] of Hank that he [A] sang
