I'm walking through your town in the snow I'm walking through your town in the snow I've got no place to go – All the trains are running slow And I'm walking through your town in the snow It's getting late and all the bars are closed It's getting late and all the bars are closed I'm so cold I can't think – I could really use a drink And I'm walking through your town in the snow Don't all these little winter towns all look the same Don't all these little winter towns all look the same How the freezing winds they blow When the mission doors are closed Now I'm walking through your town in the snow I carry my home on my back I carry my home on my back But the police only frown Every time I lay it down And I'm walking through your town in the snow
There's some fellows jungled up by the yard There's some fellows jungled up by the yard They're cooking up down there And I've nothing left to share And I'm walking through your town in the snow Maybe I can rustle up a job Maybe I can rustle up a job But there's nothing I can do My best working days are through And I'm walking through your town in the snow Don't ever think I'll find my way back home Don't ever think I'll find my way back home I can see my golden years Shining through these golden tears And I'm walking through your town in the snow I'm walking through your town in the snow I'm walking through your town in the snow I've got no place to go – All the trains are running slow And I'm walking through your town in the snow
