The tar in the street starts to melt from the heat

And the sweats runnin' down from my hair

I walked 20 miles and I'm dragging my feet

And I'll walk 20 more I don't care



And I'll wander this world, wander this world

Wander this world, wander this world all alone



I'm like a ghost some people can't see

Others drive by and stare

A shadow that drifts by the side of the road

It's like I'm not even there



And I'll wander this world, wander this world

Wander this world, wander this world all alone



Well I've never been part of the game

The life that I live is my own

All that I know is that I was born

To wander this world all alone, all alone



Some people are born with their lives all laid out

And all their success is assured

Some people work hard all their lives for nothin'

They take it and don't say a word

They don't say a word



Sometimes it's like I don't even exist

Even God has lost track of my soul

Why else would he leave me out here like this

To wander this world all alone



And I'll wander this world, wander this world

Wander this world, wander this world all alone
