The wanderer
Johnny Cash Lyrics
The wanderer Lyrics
The wanderer by Johnny Cash
through streets paved with gold
lifted some stone saw the skin and bones
of a city without a soul
I went out wandering
under an atomic sky
where the ground won't turn
and the rain it burns
like the tears when I said goodbye
Yeah I left 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
Yeah I went out walking
down that old Lake Lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Just a looking for my own name
Yeah I left with nothing
nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
Yeah 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 walking
looking for one good man
a spirit who would not bend or break
who would stand 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 paper
Told her I'd be back by noon
Yeah I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
Yeah I left with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
I went wandering
