I've been wandering early and late
From
New York City to the Golden Gate
And it don't look like
I never stop my wandering
My Daddy was an engineer
My brother drives a hack
My sister takes a laundry
While the baby balls a jack
And it don't look like
I never stop my wandering
I've been in the Army
I've worked on a farm
And all I've got to show is the muscle in my arms
And it don't look like
I never stop my wandering
My Ma she dies when I was young
My Daddy took a stealing and he got hung
And it don't look like
I never stop my wandering
Snakes in the ocean eels in the sea
I let the red headed woman make a fool out of me
And it don't look like
I never stop my wandering
Yes it don't look like
I never stop my wandering
