                The Wanderer   starring  Johnny Cash

I went out walking through steets paved with gold
Lifted some stones
Saw the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking under an atomic sky
Where the ground won't turn
And the rain it burns
Like the tears when I said goodbye

Yeah I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering

I went drifting through the capitals of tin
Where man can't walk
Or freely talk 
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They said they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it

I went out riding
Down that ol' eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name

I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you

I went out there
In search of experience
To taste and to touch
And to feel as much
As a man can
Before he repents

I went out search, lookin' for one good man     Told her I'd be back by noon
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit on his father's right hand        Yeah I left with nothing
                                                               But the thought you'd be there too
I went out walking with a bible and a gun       Looking for you ...
The word of God lay heavy on my heart       Yeah I left with nothing
I was sure I was the one                    Nothing but the thought of you ...
Now Jesus, don't you wait up                I went wandering
Jesus I'll be home soon
Yeah I went out for the papers
