Lyrics to "Hobo Jungle" song by The Band: There was a chill that night in the hobo jungle Over the train yard lay a smooth coat of frost An. .She attended the fun'ral in the hobo jungle Long were they lovers though never could they wed Drifters and rounders, oooh, and distant friends Here I lie without anger or regret I'm in no one's debt.

The Band hadn't released an album of new material since the disappointing Cahoots, and the extracurricular substance-related activities of Richard Manuel and Rick Danko lessened their songwriting output considerably (completely in Manuel's case). The second track is a "Hobo Jungle," a mid-tempo narrative that features some excellent acoustic guitar from Robbie and one of the finest vocal melodies on Band record, sung by Richard Manuel. Despite his heavy drinking, his voice still sounds great, though it's become quite weathered. Ophelia" is one of the more well-known tracks on the album. The Band uses an almost Dixieland horn arrangement and Levon Helm, in addition to singing, pounds the skins with reckless abandon.

The difficulty, and the startling alchemy, of Hobo Jungle is in the straight-forward, determinedly unsentimental performance by Richard Manuel, who sang this homeless narrative like someone who had looked into the abyss and seen it staring right back. He pulls no punches, gives nothing away to the nostalgic, the treacly or the funereal. So much of the elastic expressiveness of his initial performances with the Band had been by then lost. And the album hadn’t even revealed the first of its three bona-fide classics in Ophelia, each of them songs that belong in the same conversation with the most important moments in the Band’s storied catalog.
