Hobo dog was walking down the tracks

Looking for some junk

To take back to the junkyard

On the other side of town where

Pretty little alley cats play

Well when way up on the tracks ahead

A screamed cried out

A little cat was all tied up

And she was trying to shout for help

She said help me hobo dog

The train is coming 'round the way

Well he said hoo ooh that train

Is coming around the bend

We all thought for sure that

This would be the forsaken end

I'm sorry ma'am I'd like to help

But I'm just a hobo dog

Well the cat said hobo dog

I know you ain't no fool

So just muster up some hobo strength

And keep your hobo cool

If I get out of this alive

You're gonna get to marry me

Well hobo dog thought gee

I'd like to have her hand

So I, I guess it's time for me

To take a hobo stand

So he sat right down

And he set that kitty free

He said hoo ooh that train

Went whizzing right on by

The cat she sat down

And she began to cry

And she said honey

You're my hero

And he said shucks

I'm just a hobo dog

Well the cat and hobo dog

Hopped aboard that train

And they road off together

In love in the rain

But hobo started getting bored

Making up ways to get himself free

Well he said honey

Don't get me wrong

You're a real sweet cat

But I've got songs to sing

And tunes to write

And things like that

And lately I've been thinking

The very life I fear just ain't for me

Well, he said hoo ooh that train

Went rolling off into the sun

The cat she knew her wedding bells

Were just about done

He jumped off that train grabbed his guitar

Said shucks I'm just a hobo dog
