Old 97's
Hobo Christmas Song
(All aboard!)
[Verse 1]
Snow falls
Out in the railyard
Morning
Finds the hobo's woman
By the fire
Weary brothers form a hobo choir
[Chorus]
Christmas is for everyone
Every boy’s a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
So we sing our hobo Christmas song
[Verse 2]
Townsfolk
All locked up in their houses
Us hobos livin' outside ’neath the stars
[?]
[Chorus]
Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
And so we sing our hobo Christmas song
Yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, Yodel-ay-ee-oh, Yodel-ay-ee
[Verse 1]
Snow falls
Out in the railyard
Morning
Finds the hobo's woman
By the fire
Weary brothers form a hobo choir
[Chorus]
Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
So we sing our hobo Christmas song
Yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee-oh-ee-yodel-ay-ee
Yodel-ay-ee-oh, Yodel-ay-ee-oh, Yodel-ay-ee
[Chorus]
Christmas is for everyone
Every boy's a mother's son
Another year is almost done and gone
So we sing our hobo Christmas song
So we sing our hobo Christmas song
