[Verse 1]
Well, every road I see leads away from me
There's not a single one that leads me home
The roads keep sayin' "Friend, come and see what's 'round the bend"
So is it any wonder that I roam?
[Verse 2]
The places I have been keep a-callin' me back again
Down by the tracks, that hobo whistle blows
My heart keeps tellin' me, footloose and fancy-free
And the road goes by and calls me as it goes
[Chorus]
Well, maybe, somewhere, there's a someone waitin' there with a smile
And maybe there'll be some place I can stop and rest a while
Or maybe I was meant to be just a rollin' stone
For every road leads away from me
And not one road leads home
[Verse 3]
But I'll keep travelin' on
Keep a-lookin' at the dawn
Till I can lay this lonesome body down, down, down
When that day has come, I never more will roam
And every road I see will lead me home
Every road I see will lead me home
