voice; guitars ; Leroy Gardner Springdale, Ark. 12/29/53 Reel 183 Item 4 All Around the Water Tank All around the water tank, Just a-waiting for a train, A thousand miles away from home, A-sleeping in the rain. Well, I walked up to a brakeman Just to give him a line of talk, He says, "If you don't hurry, I'll see that you don't walk." Well, I haven't got a nickel, And a penny can't I show, "Get off, get off, you railroad bum," And slammed the boxcar door. Well, they put me off in Texas, A state I dearly love, The wide-open spaces all around me, The moon and the stars above. nobody seems to want me, Or to lend me a helping hand, I'm going back to Texas, Back to Dixie-land.
