3   4  4  4  3  4  4   4
My dad-dy is an en-gi-neer,
4   -4   -4   -4   3  -4
My broth-er drives a hack,
-4 -3  -3   -3   -3  4   4
My sis-ter takes in wash-in'
 4   4  -2 3   -2    2   -1
And the ba-by balls the jack,
1   -1   2    3
An' it looks like
 1   2  2   2  2    2   -1 -2   2  1
I'm nev-er gon-na cease my wan-der-in'.

I been a wanderin'
Early and late,
New York City
To the Golden Gate,
An' it looks like
I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'

Been a-workin'in the army
Workin' on a farm,
All I got to show for it
Is the muscle in my arm
An' it looks like
I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'

Snakes in the ocean
Fish in the sea,
Took a red-headed woman
To make a fool outa me,
An' it looks like
I'm never gonna cease my wanderin'
