The Wanderer

from Goodnight by Josh Belville

lyrics

i've been wandering these sullen painted highways
with the sun setting slowly on my back
i am thinking of the things that i am lacking
razor, shaving cream and natural tobacco

there's a girl back home who wanted me to marry
by the harbor where we kissed for the first time
and her hair always smelled a scent of lime
and i never told her where i would be going

la di da, i am wandering this country
la di da, la di da di da di da
la di da, i am wandering this country, oooh
and i don't think i'll be ever coming home

well my dad once said, "now son you must remember
money may buy you a house but it'll never keep you warm."
through the sunny days, the blizzards and the storms
i stretch my dollars all across this country

blisters on my feet and beads of sweat descending
tattered shoes and bits of food collecting in my beard
some people think i'm cool, and others think i'm weird
and i never tell them where i will be going

chorus x2
