This boxcar's been my home since San Antone'Cause this ankle of mine I turned while hoppin' onShoots pain that feeds my dreams with luxuriesI see crystal chandeliers and burgundyI can feel my mother's heartbeat from the trackIt's the rhythm of a son that won't be backLord knows where my mind is takin' meI see crystal chandeliers and burgundyIf that conductor only knew all the trouble I've been throughJust to be here on this train once againFreedom of a hobo ain't so badYou can dream of all the wealth you might've hadI guess livin' on this train is gettin' to meI see crystal chandeliers and burgundyIf that conductor only knew all the trouble I've been throughJust to be here on this train once againIf there's nothing in this world I've gotta doBut to ride these rails of steel my whole life throughThen take away these visions that I seeOf crystal chandeliers and burgundyOf crystal chandeliers and burgundy
