LYRICS:
VERSE 1
I've been wand'rin' early and late,
From New York City to the Golden Gate.
And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'.
VERSE 2
My daddy was an engineer, my brother drives a hack,
My sister takes in laundry while the baby balls the jack.
And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'.
VERSE 3
I've been in the army, I've worked on a farm,
And all I've got to show is the muscle in my arm.
And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'.
VERSE 4
My ma, she died when I was young,
My daddy took to stealin' and he got hung.
And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'.
VERSE 5
Snakes in the ocean, eels in the sea,
I let a red-headed woman make a fool out of me.
And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'.
VERSE 6
Well, I've been wand'rin' early and late,
From New York City to the Golden Gate.
And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'--
No, it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'.
