I Am a Wanderer Songtext
von Steve Earle

I am a wanderer, feet on the ground
Heart on my sleeve and my head in the clouds
Eye on a star above some distant shore
Wandering ever more

I am a refugee torn from my land
Cast off to travel this world to its end
Never to see my proud mountains again
But I still remember them


I am a laborer, sign around my neck
"Will work for trust, dignity and respect"
Stand on this corner so that you don′t forget
I haven't had mine yet

I am a prisoner pacing my cell
Three steps and back in my corner of hell
Lock me away and you swallow the key
But some day I shall be free

And I′ll be wanderer, feet on the ground
Heart on my sleeve and my head in the clouds
Eye on a star above some distant shore
Wandering ever more
