 (x4)

Verse 1:

               
 My mama was the cold north wind,
                  
 My daddy was the so-n,
                       
 Of a railroad man, from west of Hell,
                        
Where the trains don't even run.

Bridge 1:

                            
Never heard the whistle of a South-bound freight,
                              
Or the singing of it's drivin' wheel...(No I...)

Chorus 1: 

                                 
 Never did no wanderin', never did no wanderin'.
                          
 Never did no wanderin' after all.

Verse 2:

                           
 They say the highway's just one big road,
                          
And it goes from here to the-re.
                       
And they say you carry a heavy load,
                                   
When you're rollin' down the line some-where.

Bridge 2:

                           
Never seen the dance of the telephone poles,
                   
As they go whizzin' by...(No I...)

Chorus 2: 

                                 
 Never did no wanderin', never did no wanderin'.
                          
 Never did no wanderin' after all.

Interlude:



Verse 3:

                      
Now a sailors life is a life for him,
                     
But it never was for me-e.
                              
And I've never soared where the hawk may soar,
                        
Or seen what the hawk might see.

Bridge 3:

                          
Never hiked to heaven on a mountain trail,
                         
Never rolled on a river's rage...(No I...)

Chorus 3:

                                 
 Never did no wanderin', never did no wanderin'.
                          
 Never did no wanderin' after all.

Outro:

                          
 Never did no wanderin' after all...
