Arnie Acosta - The Wanderer lyrics

I went out walking through streets paved with gold Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones Of a city without a soul I went out walking under an atomic sky Where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns Like the tears when I said goodbye Yeah, I went with nothing, nothing but the thought of you I went wandering I went drifting through the capitals of tin Where men can't walk or freely talk And sons turn their fathers in I stopped outside a church house Where the citizens like to sit They say they want the kingdom But they don't want God in it I went out riding down that old eight-lane I pa**ed by a thousand signs looking for my own name I went with nothing but the thought you'd be there too Looking for you I went out there in search of experience To taste and to touch and to feel as much As a man can before he repents I went out searching, looking for one good man A spirit who would not bend or break Who would sit at his father's right hand I went out walking with a bible and a gun The word of God lay heavy on my heart I was sure I was the one Now Jesus, don't you wait up, Jesus I'll be home soon Yeah, I went out for the neighbors, told her I'd be back by noon Yeah, I left with nothing but the thought you'd be there too Looking for you Yeah, I left with nothing, nothing but the thought of you I went wandering [Singing]
