Waymore's Blues

(album: Dreaming My Dreams - 1975)

Well, I woke up this morning it was drizzling rain
Around the curve come a passenger train
Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan
Jimmy he's dead, he's been a long time gone
Been a long time gone, a long time gone

If you wanna get to heaven, gotta D-I-E
You've gotta put on your coat and T-I-E
If you wanna get the rabbit out of the L-O-G
You've gotta make a commotion like D-O-G
Now, like D-O-G, like D-O-G, yeah

Well, I've got a good woman, what's the matter with me?
What makes me wanna love every woman I see?
I was traveling when I met her, now I'm traveling again
And every woman she sees looks like a place I came in
Looks like a place I came in, a place I came in

I've got my name painted on my shirt
I ain't no ordinary dude
I don't have to work
I don't have to work, no
