Wanderer

I am a wanderer
 Looking for escape
 This road is too long
 I can't reach the gate
 Some people tell me
 "Beware of your heart
 The sun hits real hard
 In these parts"
 La da da, da da da, da da da
 My body is aching
 From the pain in my chest
 I can't get no rest
 It's cold and I'm shaken
 My feet are all blistered
 From walking too fast
 Trying to run from the past
 I don't miss her
 Lonely and lost I can't find
 My way through this big city
 Of blues that I've drowned myself in
 I've got nobody to talk to
 Find me a lover or maybe a
 Friend who can give me
 Directions to somewhere back East
 I am a wanderer
 And this is my plea
 La da da, da da da, da da da
 Some woman suggested
 I come to your house
 Don't know what you're about
 Guess I'll find out
 She said you were sweeter
 Than spring time in May
 That perhaps I could stay
 'Till the blues fade away
 Hungry and thirsty
 For something worthwhile, I will cling to
 Whatever salvation you throw
 I've got no money to give, though
 Sing me a song of Bohemia
 Whisper the words
 Of a caravan lost out at sea
 I am a wanderer
 And this is my plea
 La da da, da da da, da da da
 La da da, da da da, da da da
 La da da, da da da, da da da
 La da da, da da da, da da da
