Lyrics

Wanderin' Man
I am a wanderin' man,
I mark the miles by pebbles passed.
And the holes in my boots are there,
From days and nights gone by.
It don't really matter much,
If I live or if I die.
'Cause the dust is just in my pockets,
Just there to remind me.
(Chorus)
That you, can't understand why I am a wanderin' man.
No you, can't understand what a wanderin' man needs.
The green mile markers,
At the edge of the road.
They mark out the miles and
The times I've hauled the load.
And every place is just,
Another place to be.
When the sun comes rising, Lord,
Shining down on me.
(Chorus)
'Cause you, can't understand why I am a wanderin' man.
No you, don't understand what a wanderin' man needs.
Sometimes I wake up
Whispering your name.
The whisper falls in a town
That ain't the same as yesterday.
And these old worn out blues
Feed but never eat.
Leave me hungry and lonesome.
Back up on my feet.
(Chorus)
And you, can't understand why I am a wanderin' man.
No you, can't understand what a wanderin' man needs.
La, la, la, la, la, la
I'm coming home, baby
Baby I'm coming home
I'm coming home, baby.
I'm all worn out and I'm coming home.
