... and the road becomes my bride

I have stripped of all but pride

so in her I do confide

and she keeps me satisfied

gives me all I need

... and with dust in throat I crave

only knowledge will I save

to the game you stay a slave

rover, wanderer

nomad, vagabond

call me what you will

but I'll take my time anywhere

free to speak my mind anywhere

and I'll redefine anywhere

anywhere I roam

where I lay my head is home

... and the earth becomes my thron

I adapt to the unknown

under wandering stars I grown

by myself, but not alone

I ask no one

... and my ties are severed clean

the less I have the more I gain

off the beaten path I reign

rover, wanderer,

nomad, vagabond

call me what you will

but I'll take my time anywhere

free to speak my mind anywhere

and i'll redefine anywhere

anywhere I roam

where I lay my head is home

but I'll take time anywhere

free to speak my mind

and I'll take my find anywhere

anywhere I roam

where I lay my head is home

carved upon my stone

my body lie, but still I roam

wherever I may roam
