And the people that you meet aren't always kind.
Some are bad, some are good, some have done the best they could
Some have tried to ease my troubled mind
[Chorus:]
But I can't help but wonder
Where I'm bound, where I'm bound
I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
I have been around this land just doing the best I can
Trying to find what I was meant to do
And the faces that I see are as worried as can be
And I think that they are wondering too
[Chorus]
I had a buddy way back home, till he started out to roam
Now I hear he's out by Frisco Bay
Sometimes when I've had a few, his voice comes singing through
And I'm going out to see him some old day
[Chorus]
If you see me passing by and you sit and wonder why
You weren't meant to be a rambler too
Nail your shoes to the kitchen floor, lace them up, and bar the door
And thank the stars for the roof that's over you
[Chorus]
