Over a Wide and Fruitful Land
Ballad of America Volume 1

Wanderin
lyrics / about this song / video

I've been wanderin' early and late
From New York City to the Golden Gate
And it looks like I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'

My daddy is an engineer, my brother drives a hack
My sister takes in washing and the baby balls the jack
And it looks like I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'

Been a-workin' in the city, been a-workin' on the farm
And all I've got to show for it is the muscle in my arm
And it looks like I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'

Snakes in the ocean, eels in the sea
A redheaded woman made a fool out of me
And it looks like I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'

I've been wanderin' far and wide
I come with the wind, and I drift with the tide
And it looks like I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'
