The Wanderer

歌詞

I went out walking through the streets paved with gold Lifted some stones Saw the skin and bones Of a city without a soul I went out walking under an atomic sky Where the ground won't turn And the rain it burns Like the tears when I said goodbye Yeah I went 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 I stopped outside a church house Where the citizens like to sit They say they want the kingdom But they don't want God in it Yeah I went 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 I went out with nothing Nothing but the thought of you I went wandering I went out walking Down that winding road Where no one's trusting no one And conscience...a too heavy load I went out riding, down that ol'eight lane I passed by a thousand signs Looking for my own name Yeah I went 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 I went with nothing But the thought you'd be there, too Looking for you I went out there in search of experience To taste and to touch and to feel's as much As a man can before he repents I went out searching, looking for one good man A spirit who would not bend or break Who could sit 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 Yea I went out for the papers Told her I'd be back by noon Yeah I left with nothing But the thought you'd be there too Looking for you... Yeah I left with nothing Nothing but the thought of you... I went wandering
