Lyrics
WANDERING WAYS: THERE'S AS MANY KINDS OF WOMEN AS THERE'S DIFFERENT KINDS OF LOVIN', AND I THINK THAT I HAVE LOVED IN EVERY WAY; THERE ARE THOSE THAT CRITICIZE ME FOR MY EASY WAY OF LIVIN', AND THEY'RE AFTER ME TO SETTLE DOWN SOME DAY. (PRE-CHORUS) BUT BUT I LIKE WAKING EVERY MORNING NEVER KNOWING WHAT I'LL BE DOING, AND I WANT TO LIFE MY LIFE FROM DAY TO DAY; I'LL GO WHERE MY HEART LEADS ME OR WHEREVER THIS ROAD WILL TAKE ME, I'LL KEEP WANDERING 'TILL I FIND A BETTER WAY.(CHORUS)WANDERING WAYS, WANDERING WAYS, LORD, HOW I LOVE MY WANDERING WAYS. (V.2) I'VE KNOWN THE BEAUTY OF THE COUNTRY AND THE HUSTLE OF THE CITY, AND I LIKE EACH ONE IN IT'S OWN PLACE AND TIME; WHEN I SEE YOU WITH YOUR ROOTS SUNK DEEP I FEEL A KIND OF PITY, 'CAUSE FOR THERE'S ALWAYS ONE MORE HILL TO CLIMB,(PRE-CHORUS & CHORUS) (V.3)WELL I LIKE THE THOUGHT OF KNOWING THAT MY DUT CLOUD'S FAR BEHIND ME, ANDBY THE TIME IT SETTLES I'LL BE GONE; I THINK GOD GAVE MAN LEGS 'CAUSE HE WAS MEANT TO BE A TRAVELER, SO DONN'T YOU FEEL TO SAD WHEN I MOVE ON.(PRE CHO. & CHO) (V.4)I'VE BEEN ALMOT EVERYPLACE THAT THIS OLD TRUCK CAN TAKE ME, AND I'VE SLEPT IN FIELDS, IN HAYLOFTS AND ON FLOORS; STILL I SOMETIMES MISS THE WORDS YOU WHISPERED IN MY EAR TO WAKE ME, AND IF ANY ARMS COULD HOLD ME THEY'D BE YOURS.(PRE-CHO.& CHORUS)
