Walkin' Holes In My Shoes
~ Boxcar Willie
[Verse 1]
C
It was a dark rainy night down in Texas
Am
I believe the year was nineteen-sixty-two
F C
When I packed up all my rags in one little bag
G7 C
I started walking holes in my shoes
[Chorus]
C
I could hear the engineer's lonesome whistle
Am
And old Hank he was singing the blues
F C
When I walked out the door said I won't be back no more
G7 C
Started walking holes in my shoes
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 2]
C
Well it's been thirty years since I left her
Am
Since I left well I ain't had no news
F C
Listen my friends I'd do it all again
G7 C
Walk another hole in my shoes
[Chorus]
C
I could hear the engineer's lonesome whistle
Am
And old Hank he was singing the blues
F C
When I walked out the door said I won't be back no more
G7 C
Started walking holes in my shoes
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
C
Well sometimes I still miss that woman
Am
Like tonight my mind's on the blues
F C
Was a long time ago I became a hobo
G7 C
Started walking holes in my shoes
[Chorus]
C
I could hear the engineer's lonesome whistle
Am
And old Hank he was singing the blues
F C
When I walked out the door said I won't be back no more
G7 C
Started walking holes in my shoes
