I was born for roaming |
|
And guess I always will |
|
I wonder if it's greener |
|
On the far side of that hill |
|
Hey Dan, look down yonder |
|
There's earth and green and sky |
|
I bet we could get on down there |
|
In the battin' of an eye |
|
And further west there's ocean |
|
A miner told me so, |
|
And the sun it shines so brightly |
|
It scares off winter snow |
|
But Dan, sometimes I'm tired |
|
Sometimes I'm lonesome too |
|
Sometimes I see a farmer |
|
Walking slow when day is through |
|
And I know he's got a woman |
|
waiting supper everyday |
|
And I curse this wanderin' fever |
|
That stole my love away |
|
Guess I was born for roaming |
|
And roam I always will |
|
Oh I wonder if it's greener |
|
On the far side of the hill |
|
I wonder if it's greener |
|
On the far side of that hill |
