Now they tell me that you're as wild as I was
Such a crazy dream for a child of mine
You who've grown so dark with the sun
Tell me your day little wandering one, little wandering one

A friend said to me
You got to feel luck to get lucky
You got to heed the word to be set free
Why don't you let me live inside my dreams?

I had a vision
I had a place near the sun but I burned everyone with my vision
So from the city I planned with a quickness and ran for the open
Did I hurt anyone? Well I thought it was fun

Now they tell me that you're as wild as I was
Such a crazy dream for a child of mine
You who've grown so dark with the sun
Tell me your day little wandering one, little wandering one

Some drew the short straw
Some drew the long and some went beyond for their trouble
Got a gun to the head in the language of dead, I was peaceful
From the city I ran up into the mountain
Some blue country mystic in my mind
Now they tell me that you're as wild as I was
Such a crazy dream for a child of mine
You who've grown so dark with the sun
Tell me your day little wandering one

Now they tell me that you're as wild as I was
Such a crazy dream for a child of mine
You who've grown so dark with the sun
Tell me your day little wandering one, little wandering one
