Original lyrics
ENTrainhopper, trainhopper, tumbling into town
your eyes they light the place right up
even when your luck is down
whenever you run out of cash you kick the dust and turn your back
you gather your things and pack your pack
and we don't see you around
oh, wherever you go
leaving behind all you knew
caught up on the road
you're a thousand miles a way
and may the light of the earth shine on you
oh oh ohs
oh you lonely travelling figure stumbling out the door
your stories they don't all add up
and you leave us wanting more
oh you flatland freeloader waiting day and night
for your luck to change your passing train
carry you to the light
oh, wherever you go
leaving behind all you knew
caught up on the road you're a thousand miles away
may the light of the earth shine on you
oh oh ohs
