Wandering James Taylor

I've been wandering
Early late
From New York City
To the Golden Gate

And it don't look like
I'll ever stop my wandering

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 wandering

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 wandering

My ma she died
When I was young
My daddy took to stealing
And he got hung
