I Can’t Help But Wonder

[Verse 1]
It's a long and a dusty road
It's a hard and heavy load
And the folks I meet ain't always kind
Some are bad, some are good
Some have done the best they could
Some have tried to ease my troublin' 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 have been around this land
Just a-doin' the best I can
Tryin' to find what I was meant to do
And the faces that I see
Are as worried as can be
And it looks like they're a-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 buddy way back home
But he started out to roam
And I hear he's out by Frisco Bay
And sometimes when I've had a few
His voice comes singin' through
And I'm goin' out to see him some old day

[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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
If you see me passin' by
And you sit and wonder why
And you wish that you were a rambler, too
Nail your shoes to the kitchen floor
Lace 'em up and bar the door
And thank the 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

[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
