Well it's seems to me that
That every young girl
Who wanders in life all alone
Should not defeat the hope of the world
That she should have a happy home
Or else she'll cry some
Cry for awhile she wanders
Yes, she will cry some
Cry for awhile she roams
Without a home
I knew a girl who wanted to be
Driftwood on any old sea
Cast on a shore she dried in the sun
Once younger, now older than me
And she would cry some
Cry for awhile she wanders
Yes, she will cry some
Cry for awhile she roams
Without a home
[Instrumental Bridge]
Yes, she would cry some
Cry for awhile she wandered
I said she will cry some
Cry for awhile she roamed without a home
I knew a girl who wanted to be
Unlike her friends that she knew
Made her own in-di-vid-u-ality
Yes sir, proud of anything that she'd do
And you know that she don't cry none
Though she slowly wanders
I said that she don't cry none
Though she slowly roams
She's found a home
