[Verse 1]
Woman you get meaner every day and your naggin' is hard to stand
So I'll pack my things and I'll be on my way cause it's time to bum again
This house gets smaller with every day and the walls are closin' in
I guess I've said all there is to say and it's time to bum again

[Chorus]
The time has come to bum again I'm gonna see all the places I ain't been
Woman you've stirred up the wild wild wind and it's time to bum again

[Verse 2]
I'll visit my buddy out in Bakersfield we soldiered together years back
We'll talk night and day till there's no more to say then I'll head on down the track
I may come back in a year or two and you may not desire me then
There are some things that a man must do and it's time to bum again

[Chorus]
