Wander My Way Home

You take a cab in this big city

You're a fool to walk alone

They won't be happy with your wallet

No, they want to pick your bones

I asked a man for directions

Thinking maybe he would know, he said

Go straight, you can't miss it

But you've got a ways to go

If you get lost, Mister just keep moving

No matter what, you carry on

You may stumble into heaven

You may wander your way home

See, coming up, the streets are one way

And they're one way going down

I been up and down em all ways

I been all the way cross town

I asked a woman for directions

Hoping maybe she would know, she said

Say, is this here the Garden Parkway?

Is this the highway home?

If I get back, boy, I'm going to stay back

And never, ever roam

I asked a child for directions

On a chance that he would know, he said
