James Taylor Wandering
Traditional Arrangements and additional Lyrics by James Taylor I've been wanderin' early late From New York City to the Golden Gate And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin' My daddy was an engineer My brother drives a hack My sister takes in laundry While the baby balls the jack And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin' I've been in the army I've worked on a farm And all I've got to show is the muscle in my arm And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin' My ma she died when I was young My daddy took to stealin' and he got hung And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin' Snakes in the ocean Eels in the sea I let a redheaded woman make a fool out of me And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin' I've been wanderin' early late From the New York City to the Golden Gate And it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin' No, it don't look like I'll ever stop my wanderin'
