It's a long and a dusty road It's a hot and a heavy load Folks I meet, they aren't always kind Some are bad, some are good Some just do the best they could Some have tried to ease my troubled mind And I can't help but wonder Where I'm bound, where I'm bound Can't help but wonder Where I'm bound I had a friend from home He started out to roam I hear that he's out by Frisco bay Sometimes when I drink a few His voice comes singing through I'm goin' out there, gonna see him some old day And I can't help but wonder Where I'm bound, where I'm bound Can't help but wonder Where I'm bound I had a girl one time She had lips like sherry wine I believe that I loved her to my soul But I was too blind to see She was driftin' away from me One day she left me out in the cold And I can't help but wonder Where I'm bound, where I'm bound I can't help but wonder Where I'm bound
