Lyrics:

It's a long and a dusty road,
It's a hot and a heavy load,
And the folks that I meet ain't always kind.
Some are bad, some are good,
Some have done the best they could,
Some have tried to ease my troubling mind.
Chorus
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound,
Where I'm bound
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound.
I have wandered thru this land,
Just a doing the best I can,
Tryin to find what I was meant to do,
And the people that I see,
Look as worried as can be,
And it looks like they are a wondering too.
Chorus
I had a little girl one time,
She had lips like Sherry wine,
I loved her til my head went plumb insane,
But I was too blind to see,
She was drifting away from me,
And my good gal went off on the morning train.
Chorus
And I had a buddy back home,
But he started out to roam,
I hear he's out by Frisco Bay,
And sometimes when I've had a few,
His old voice comes a ringing thru,
And I'm going out to see him some old day.
Chorus
If you see me passing by,
And you sit and you wonder why,
And if you wish that you were a rambling too,
Nail your shoes to the kitchen floor
Lace them up and bar the door,
Thank your stars for the roof that over you.
Chorus
