Lyrics
Give me water and a crusty piece of bread
A Sterno can, a place to lay my head
Pleasant weather and a clear view of the sky
The rumble of the boxcars rolling by
Give me strength to keep on moving
Give me laughter, give me music
Like the music of the locomotive's cry
The 737's flying high
(instrumental)
Give me strength to keep on moving
Give me laughter, give me music
Like the music that the sparrows sing at dawn
Before it gets too late I will be gone
