Wandering Boy Lyrics - Houston Kid - Rodney Crowell

Come in from the cold you must be cold 

Thread bare against a freezing wind is a short time gettin' old 

Come and sit down tell me where you've been 

Rest your soul beside the fire till it's time to go again 

Take me back 

One more time 

Where the railroad tracks 

Meet the kudzu vine 

Wandering boy 

The blood that's flowing through you flows through me 

When I look in any mirror it's your face that I see 

And you're my only brother I'm your twin 

And you've come home to rest awhile and shed your dying skin

Ease your mind 

Have no fear 

When it comes your time 

I'll be here 

Wandering boy 

We're two Houston kids 

Sailin' mason jar lids 

With our pop bottles hid 

By the bayou bend 

In the wild East End 

Welcome back again 

Wandering boy 

I used to cast my judgements like a net 

All those California gay boys deserved just what they get 

Little did I know there would come a day 

When my words would come back screaming like a debt I have to pay 

Photos 

Lean on me 

I'll be strong 

We're almost free 

It won't be long 

Wandering boy
