The Wanderer

Oh well I'm the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I'm around
I kiss 'em and I love'em 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my name
They call me the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around...

Oh well there's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl with that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt I got Rosie on my chest
'Cause I'm the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around...

Oh well I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
'Til I'm as happy as a clown
With my two fists of iron and I'm going nowhere

I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and ride around the world
Yeah I'm the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around...

Oh yeah I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and ride around the world
Yeah 'cause I'm a wanderer yeah a wanderer
I roam around around around...
'Cause I'm a wanderer yeah a wanderer
I roam around around around...

The Wanderer

by Kimberley Locke

Dance for me sweetheart while I strum my guitar
You sure look pretty tonight
I've just come off the road and I could use the company
Now that would suit me just fine

Now I've seen a lot of special things around this world
You can see them too, you can
What's that you ask
I have no name, I have no name
For I am know only as man
For I am know only as man

[Chorus]
I'm a wanderer I have no lace or time
I'm just drifting on this lonely road of mine
And if you like you can come along with me
But I promise you that I am not the man I use to be
But I promise you that I am not the man I use to be

Now you and I we've seen our share of ups and downs
Somewhere we just lost hope
I can't change the past but who cares
Your love is all I've ever known
Your love is all I've ever known

[Chorus]

I'm a wanderer I have no place or time
I'm just drifting on this lonely road of mine
It you would accept me for me
Then I promise you that there's a better man inside of me
Yea I promise you there's a better man inside of me
Love I promise you there's a better main inside of me

Dance for me sweetheart while I strum my guitar
You sure you look pretty tonight

The Wanderer

I went out walking
Through streets paved with gold
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking
Under an atomic sky
Where the ground won't turn
And the rain it burns
Like the tears when I said goodbye

Yeah I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering

I went drifting
Through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it
I went out riding
Down that old eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name

I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you

I went out there
In search of experience
To taste and to touch
And to feel as much
As a man can before he repents

I went searching
Looking for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his father's right hand
I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one
Now Jesus don't you wait up
Jesus I'll be home soon
Yeah I went out for the papers
Told her I'd be back by noon

Yeah I left with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you

Yeah I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering

The Wanderer

Woke up this morning
dragged myself across the bed
Alice went to wonderland
but I stayed home instead
I started feeling bad
'cause I was left behind
'cause I'm a wanderer
Oh yes, I'm a wanderer

She climbed right through the mirror
Oh that really blew my mind
I think I'll follow through her rhythm
and her rhyme
I know I'm ready now
It's just a little time
'cause I'm a wanderer
I'm a wanderer

'cause I'm a wanderer
I travel every place
'cause I'm a wanderer
from here to outer space
'cause I'm a wanderer
got no time
'cause I'm a wanderer
just a wanderer

Slipped down the back stair
on my toes
then out the door
they didn't hear
now they won't
see me anymore
'cause I'm can't take
that nine to five life
it's a bore
'cause I'm a wanderer
just a wanderer

and so it's up and out
and on and off the road
won't have no troubles
'cause the whole world
is my home
no need to worry
'cause I seldom am alone
'cause I'm wanderer
I'm a wanderer

'cause I'm a wanderer
I travel every place
'cause I'm a wanderer
from here to outer space
'cause I'm wanderer
got no time
cause I'm a wanderer
just a wanderer

Now you may see me
any time and any place
and you may know me
from the same look
on your face
and I don't know if I could
change your frame of mind
'cause I'm a wanderer
just a wanderer

'Cause I'm a wanderer
I travel every place
'cause I'm a wanderer
from here to outer space
'cause I'm a wanderer
got no time
'cause I'm a wanderer
'cause I'm a wanderer
'cause I'm a wanderer
'cause I'm a wanderer...

I roam round and round and round and round

There's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl that'll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt and show
Rosie on my chest
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
I roam round and round and round and round

Well, I roam from town to town
Live life without a care
I'm as happy as a clown
With my 2 fists of iron but I'm goin' nowhere

I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place;
I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer

Through streets paved with gold
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking
Under an atomic sky
Where the ground won't turn
And the rain it burns
Like the tears when I said goodbye

Yeah I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering

I went drifting
Through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it
I went out riding
Down that old eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name

I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too

To taste and to touch

I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one
Now Jesus don't you wait up
Jesus I'll be home soon
Yeah I went out for the papers
Told her I'd be back by noon

Yeah I left with nothing

Looking for you

Nothing but the thought of you

The Wanderer

chorus:
A slight call afar is tempting me
Like a whisper sweet or an awful scream
I cannot ignore what I've always been
I am leaving again - one last time?

Laid on the pale scythe of the Moon
I play with stars around me
The elvendom is now calling out my name

My fairy and I are wandering through times
And stories forgotten, some old fairytales
Of wizards of Oz, of lost keys and gardens
Hiding secret doors that lead to a dream
For those who believe there's always a door to get in

chorus:
A slight call afar is tempting me
Like a whisper sweet or an awful scream
I cannot ignore what I've always been
I am leaving again - one last time?
In my little kingdom I can be what I really
Wanted to be - The wanderer

I'm hearing scratches at my door
Somebody wants me again
Some little creatures will be my fellows

My demon and I are playing some
wicked games I should not play, not fair to be played
Don't tell anyone the place where I'm going
'cause they won't believe - This time I don't know
If I'll ever return, say goodbye for me to my home

chorus:
A slight call afar is tempting me
Like a whisper sweet or an awful scream
I cannot ignore what I've always been
I am leaving again - one last time?
In my little kingdom I can be what I really
Wanted to be - The wanderer
