    This bluegrass song tells the story of a traveler who has lost all his money except for a two dollar bill and is making his way home. He describes the cloudy weather, his desire to get home as it rains, and his homesickness and loneliness along the journey. Seeing the black smoke of an approaching train raises his hopes that he can continue his travel, and possibly find companionship from women waiting down the line. The chorus reiterates that he is on his long journey home.
