I am a wanderer looking for escape This road is too long, I can’t reach the
gate Some people tell me “Beware of your heart
The sun hits real hard in these parts”
La da da, da da da, da da da
My body is aching from the pain in my chest I can’t get no rest, it’s cold and I’m
shakin My feet are all blistered from walking too
fast Tryin to run from the past, I don’t miss
her
Lonely and lost I can’t find my way through this big city
Of blues that I’ve drowned myself in I’ve got nobody to talk to
Find me a lover or maybe a friend who can give me
Directions to somewhere back East I am a wanderer and this is my plea
La da da, da da da, da da da
Some woman suggested I come to your house Don’t know what you’re about
Guess I’ll find out She said you were sweeter than spring time
in May That perhaps I could
Till the blues fade away
Hungry and thirsty for something worthwhile I will cling to whatever salvation you throw
I got no money to give though Sing me a song of Bohemia
Whisper the words of a caravan lost out at sea
I am a wanderer and this is my plea
