Wanderin' (trad./new lyrics Roger McGuinn)


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 going to cease my wandering

I've been out a-wandering both early and late
From New York City to the Golden Gate
And it looks like I'm never going to cease my wandering

Been across this country so many times before,
But I never lose the feeling, that's what God made me for
And it looks like I'm never going to cease my wandering

Been working in the city, working on the farm
I always have a guitar underneath my arm
And it looks like I'm never going to cease my wandering

Played most every country, played most every town
Want to keep on playing, this whole wide world around
And it looks like I'm never going to cease my wandering

There's fish in the ocean, and eels in the sea
And everywhere I haven't been, that's where I want to be
And it looks like I'm never going to cease my wandering
