lyrics

Boys Of The Tracks

Boys of the tracks are on the ramble
Boys of the tracks are on the roll
They’re looking for a place to winter over
Looking for a way to come out of the cold

I seen them on the overpass now
Seen them walking single file
They got lightness in their worries
They got troubles in their smiles

Gonna find an old house up on the north side
Big and drafty, that’s ok
Find some cheap rent and share the labor
Laying low for a warmer day

Set on down that oilskin rucksack
Set aside them steel toe boots
Peel on back that cardboard case there
There’s rosin on the mantle too

Hand me down that old brown bottle
Pass around that reefer too
Hit up a tune up on the gut string banjer
There’s nothing more we have to do

Sing to me ‘bout wide Montana
But make me a picture of Tennessee
I got hunger in all this plenty
There’s no place I’d rather be

I got love with an endless highway
I got war with the powers that be
Kick out the bums and get your ready
Let’s get on with being free
