[G] I jumped off a boxcar down around Tennessee.
I was cold, tired, and dirty, hungry as I could [C] be.
But I had my guitar and a hundred railroad songs.
[G] So I asked a police man, can I stay here long?
[A] He said, [C] Mr.
Hubbard, you [D] got to come out.
We [D] don't want you [G] around.
[C] [C] See, I'm trying to build me a respectable town.
We don't need a hubbub like you [G] hanging around.
So I left that town.
Lord, I had my guitar in my hand.
Still cold and tired, kind of mad at the [C] man.
But this life that I chose to live, sometimes [G] it's strange.
See, I'm trying to learn about the old music,
riding in the train.
[A] Well, [G] I'm a [C] hubbub, ooh, I [D] know.
[C] Look out the [D] bus I'll [G] take.
[C] Then I'll write me another song.
While I'm on my way, I'm going to catch me another train.
This is what I'll [Gm] say, [G] a true, true train.
Take me away,
[C]
[G] a true, true train.
[C]
[G]
Well, I'm going to ride the train along until I find out
what Jim and Roger and the heck was all about.
[C] Well, I'll play this rocking road.
I'll bring [G] that slamming door.
Ride to go back home, a little fun time.
[A] I'm [C] a hubbub, ooh, [D] I know.
Look [D] out the bus I'll [G] take.
[C] [C] Guess I'll write me another song.
While I'm on my way, I'm going to catch me a freight train.
