In the Dodge City yards

Stood a freight made up for the east

A box- car door swung wide

To start on his last long ride

The engine, it gathered speed

The flare of the match showed

Stark white and deathly still

As the train wheels clicked on
the couplin' joints

A song for the rambler's ear

His pal for many a year

For a mighty long time,
we've rambled, Jack

pal
'Cause I'm takin' you home tonight

And that doctor just wouldn't come
He was too busy treatin' the wealthy folks

Straight through to the east, it sped
The engineer in his high cab seat

empty box

The lonely hobo sighed

For the days of old and his pal so cold
