Gypsy of the Railways

Gypsy of the Railways I march to a different drummer My life it is my own I'm an explorer of experience That is how I'm known I've seen snow in South Dakota I've been on the Vegas strip Had barbeque in Kansas My life has been a trip I'm a gypsy of the railways I'm a legend in my time I move on in a boxcar Brother... spare a dime? I've been through all the landlocked states Five provinces as well I've seen Niagara Falls all frozen I've seen it flowing fast as well I've had margaritas in Key West And Bourbon in Kentucky Craft beers out in Oregon In my life I have been lucky I travel on my stories Feed myself with all my tales I'm an explorer of experience I'm a gypsy of the rails I never stick around too long I don't wear my welcome out I come and see just what I want That's what life is all about I've railroad friends in Texas Some up in BC too We've shared drinks in San Diego And had a great Alaskan brew I'm not one to live by your rules I find my rules suit me fine I'm an explorer of experience And I'm riding on the lines You can find me down in Georgia Or eating spuds in Idaho I never know just where I'll be Until my ride begins to go I'm a gypsy of the railways I'm a legend in my time I move on in a boxcar Brother...spare a dime?
