I Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound 

Chad Mitchell Trio 

It's a long and a dusty road. 

It's a hard and a heavy load 

and the folks we meet ain't always kind. 

Some are bad and some are good. 

Some have done the best they could. 

Some have tried to ease our troubling mind. 

Chorus: 

And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound. 

Can't help but wonder where I'm bound. 

I have traveled across this land 

just a-doing the best I can. 

Tryin' to find what I was meant to do. 

And the faces that I see 

are as worried as can be. 

Looks like they've been wonderin', too. 

Chorus 

I had a buddy, way back home, 

but he started out to roam 

and I hear he's out by Monterey, 

And sometimes, when I've had a few, 

his voice comes singin' through 

and I'm a-goin' out to see him some old day. 

Chorus 

If you see us passin' by 

and you sit and you wonder why 

and you wish that you were a rambler, too. 

Nail your shoes to the kitchen floor, 

lace 'em up, bar the door 

and thank the stars for the roof that's over you. 

Chorus 

And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound, 

can't help but wonder where I'm bound.
