MILWAUKEE BLUES From Charlie Poole. Key on LP ~C#. Only has 15 bars! Bar 8 and 14 are 6/4 
One Tuesday morning and it looked like rain Round the curve come a passenger train On the blind sat old Bill Jones He’s a good old hobo and he’s tryin’ to get home 
Chorus: Tryin’ to get home, he’s tryin’ to get home He’s a good old hobo and he’s tryin’ to get home 
Way down in Georgia on a tramp Roads are gettin’ muddy and my legs are gettin’ damp I got to catch a freight train to leave this town ’Cause they don’t allow no hobos a-hangin’ around. 
I left Atlanta one morning ’fore day The brakeman said, "You’ll have to pay." Got no money but I pawned my shoes I want to go west, got the Milwaukee blues 
Old Bill Jones said before he died, "Fix the roads so the folks can ride When they ride they will ride the rods Put all their trust in the hands of God. 
Old Bill Jones said before he died There’s two more roads that he’d like to ride Fireman said what can it be? Southern Pacific and the Santa Fee.
