I love to hear his guitar singing Take it away when he goes The sweetest song you ever heard Lay me down in the cradle low Maybe high up in the mountains Or out on the deep blue sea Wander this wide world over Never coming back to me Oh bye, bye, bye says the restless boy His true kid don't understand He's only home, he's only happy When he's rolling through the land Maybe high up in the mountains Or out on the deep blue sea Wander this wide world over Never coming back to me Rusty strings on his old guitar Voices shake, they shimmer and sigh Light on a rusty string Brighter than all stars in the sky Maybe high up in the mountains Or out on the deep blue sea Wander this wide world over Never coming back to me Wander this wide world over Never coming back to me.
