I woke up in the mornin', memphis city time
Don't remember how i got there, surly wa'nt robin' no bank.

Surely, surely surely surely

Last thing i remember, drinking with some bo's
Somebody bonk' me on the head and i woke up in a stinkin hole

Oh its a hobo low, yeah its a hobo low,
Yeah its a hobo low, yeah its a hobo low

Woke up in the mornin', sleeping on a bridge
Aint got no food or tv, surely got no fridge

Surely, surely, surely, surely

Well last thing i remember....drinkin' with some bowls
Thought i'd deck the box to can the city woke up in new mexico

Oh its a hobo low, yeah its a hobo low,
Yeah its a hobo low, yeah its a hobo low

When your hobo low there aint no where to go, there aint nuthin lower than hobo low

When your hobo low there aint no where to go, there aint nuthin lower than hobo low

When your hobo low there aint no where to go, there aint nuthin lower than hobo low

When your hobo low there aint no where to go, there aint nuthin lower than hobo low
Aint it the truth

Wen'on down to the mission, gotta get a bite to eat
The mission man said sorry boy you allready been here twice this week

Oh its a hobo low, yeah its a hobo low,
Yeah its a hobo low, yeah its a hobo low

Woke up in the mornin', memphis city t-i-i-ime
Face down.
