Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound Lyrics - Other Voices, Other Rooms - Nanci Griffith

It's a long and dusty road 

It's a hot and heavy load 

And the folks I meet ain't always kind 

Some are bad and some are good 

Some have done the best they could 

Some have tried to ease my trouble in mind 

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

Where I'm bound 

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

I've been wandering through this land 

Just doin' the best I can 

Tryin' to find what I was meant to do 

And the people that I see 

Look as worried as can be 

And it looks like they are wanderin', too 

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

Where I'm bound 

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

And I had me a buddy back home 

But he started out to roam 

And I hear, he's out by Frisco Bay 

And, sometimes when I've had a few 

His old voice comes ringin' through 

And I'm goin' out to see him some old day 

If you see me passin' by 

And you sit and you wonder why 

And you wish that you were a rambler, too 

Just nail your shoes to the kitchen floor 

Lace 'em up and bar the door 

Thank your stars for the roof that's over you
