Story behind the song

A gamblin' man in New Orleans

Lyrics

HOBO LOST FOREVER

I WAS ONCE A RICH MAN
A JOB A WIFE AND CAR
THOUGHT MY LIFE WAS PERFECT
IT DIDN’T GET ME FAR

ITS JUST ANOTHER MORNING
I AWOKE UP IN THE FROST
I’LL HITCH A CRAWLER SOUTHWARD
I’M JUST A GUY WHO’S LOST

I SPENT MY YEARS AT HIGH SCHOOL
I GOT A FIRST DEGREE
IT GAVE ME ALL THE GOOD THINGS
EXCEPT THE POWER TO BE FREE

I SPEND EACH DAY A TRAVELLING
A WAGON COLD AND DAMP
FINDING HARD TO COPE WITH LIFE
A RAILHEAD FOR A CAMP.

I MADE LOTS OF MONEY ONCE
HOW MUCH  I CANT RECALL
LOST IT ALL DOWN IN NEW ORLEANS
IN ANOTHER GAMBLING HALL
WHERE I LOST IT ALL

I WAS ONCE A RICH MAN
A JOB A WIFE AND CAR
THOUGHT MY LIFE WAS PERFECT
IT DIDN’T GET ME FAR

I’LL HITCH A LIFT  BACK HOMEWARD
TO A PLACE THAT I KNOW WELL
TRY TO FIND  THE  GIRL I LOVED 
WHO TOLD ME TO GO TO HELL.
