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'
