I Can't Help But Wonder (Where I'm Bound) feat. Tom Paxton, Della Mae

I can't help but wonder where I'm bound

It's a long and a dusty road
It's a hot and a 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 trouble in mind

Ch.
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
Where I'm bound
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound

I have wandered through this land
Just a doing the best I can
Trying to find what I was meant to do
And the people that I see
Look as worried as can be
And it looks like they are wondering too

Ch.
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
Where I'm bound
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound

I had a little girl one time
She had lips like cherry wine
She loved me ‘til my head went plumb insane
But I was too blind to see
She was drifting away from me
And my good gal went off on the morning train

Ch.
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
Where I'm bound
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound

And I had a buddy back home
But he started out to roam
I hear he's out by Frisco Bay
And sometimes when I've had a few
His old voice comes a ringing through
And I'm going out to see him some old day

Ch.
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
Where I'm bound
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound


If you see me passing by
And you sit and you wonder why
And you wish that you were a rambler too
Nail your shoes to the kitchen floor
Lace them up and bar the door
Thank your stars for the roof that’s over you

Ch.
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
Where I'm bound
And I can't help but wonder where I'm bound
