Lyric of the Month: May 2011

by Nic Olson

My mother suggested that this should become my new theme song. Watching London run with rifles in his jaws and knocking criminals into bodies of water as a kid really had an impact on me, I guess.
That’s hobo style.

There’s a voice that keeps on calling me
Down the road is where I’ll always be

Every stop I make, I’ll make a new friend
Can’t stay for long, just turn around and I’m gone again

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll want settle down
Until tomorrow, I’ll just keep moving on

Down this road, that never seems to end
Where new adventure, lies just around the bend

So if you want to join me for a while
Just grab your hat, come travel light
That’s hobo style

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll want settle down
Until tomorrow, the whole world is my home

So if you want to join me for a while
Just grab your hat, come travel light
That’s hobo style

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll want settle down
Until tomorrow, I’ll just keep moving on

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll want settle down
Until tomorrow, I’ll just keep moving on

There’s a world, that’s waiting to unfold
A brand new tale, no one has ever told,

We’ve journey’d far but, you know it won’t be long
We’re almost there and we’ve paid our fare with the hobo song

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll want settle down
Until tomorrow, I’ll just keep moving on

So if you want to join me for a while
Just grab your hat, come travel light
That’s hobo style

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll find what I call home
Until tomorrow, you know I’m free to roam
