Can’t Help But Wonder Where I’m Bound

[Verse 1]
It's a long and dusty road
It's a hard and a heavy load
And the folks I meet not always kind
Some are bad, some are good
Some have done the best they could
Some have tried to ease my troubln' mind

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
I've been all around this land
Just doin' the best I can
Tryin' to find what I was meant to do
And the faces that I see
They're worried as can be
And it looks like they are wonderin', too

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
I had a fellow one time
He had lips like sherry wine
And he loved me 'til I almost went insane
But I was too blind to see
He was driftin' away from me
And one day he left on the mornin' train

[Chorus]
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

Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 4]
If you see me passin' by
And you sit, and you wonder why
And you wish that you were a rambler, too
Well, nail your shoes to the kitchen floor
Lace them up and bar the door
Thank your stars for the roof that's over you

[Chorus]
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
