Description
SONG DESCRIPTION:
A rollicking rendition of an old favorite. In this hobos' paradise "railroad bulls" (policemen) are blind, handouts grow on bushes, and "shacks" (brakemen) tip their hats to bums. It was customary to say of a hobo when he died, "He's gone to the Big Rock Candy Mountains".
Ripped from the 1998 Rockhaven release.
