Woke up this morning Dragged myself across the bed Alice went to wonderland But I stayed home instead I started feeling bad 'Cause I was left behind 'Cause I'm a wanderer Oh yes, I'm a wanderer She climbed right through the mirror Oh that really blew my mind I think I'll follow through her rhythm And her rhyme I know I'm ready now It's just a little time 'Cause I'm a wanderer I'm a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer I travel every place 'Cause I'm a wanderer From here to outer space 'Cause I'm a wanderer Got no time 'Cause I'm a wanderer Just a wanderer Slipped down the back stair On my toes Then out the door They didn't hear Now they won't See me anymore 'Cause I can't take That nine to five life It's a bore 'Cause I'm a wanderer Just a wanderer And so it's up and out And on and off the road Won't have no troubles 'Cause the whole world Is my home No need to worry 'Cause I seldom am alone 'Cause I'm wanderer I'm a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer I travel every place 'Cause I'm a wanderer From here to outer space 'Cause I'm wanderer Got no time 'Cause I'm a wanderer Just a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer Just a wanderer Now you may see me Any time and any place And you may know me From the same look On your face And I don't know if I could Change your frame of mind 'Cause I'm a wanderer Just a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer I travel every place 'Cause I'm a wanderer From here to outer space 'Cause I'm a wanderer Got no time 'Cause I'm a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer 'Cause I'm a wanderer I travel every place 'Cause I'm a wanderer From here to outer space 'Cause I'm a wanderer Got no time 'Cause I'm a wanderer I travel every place 'Cause I'm a wanderer From here to outer space 'Cause I'm a wanderer Got no time
