hobo

The Times, in an editorial, warned of “an army of floaters and drifters and plain hobos now headed to Southern California from all parts of the United States.”

Going back to the 1800s, the city keeps “tramps,” “hobos,” “vagrants” and “winos” off the streets by locking them up in jail or sending them to work at the county “poor farm.”

When you think about the folk era, when it was really hot — burning hot — it was hobos on freighters writing songs about social injustice.

The network once demanded that they change the line “that albino stole my midget” to “that madman stole my hobo.”

Yes, it wasn't a boy; it was a little girl, but I couldn't tell because she was dressed like a hobo.
