"I Can't Help But Wonder (Where I'm Bound)" lyrics

It's a long and a dusty road, a hot and a heavy load
The folks I meet ain't always kind
Some are bad, some are good, some have done the best they could
Some have tried to ease my troublin' mind

But I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Can't help but wonder where I'm bound

I've been wanderin' through this land, tryin' to do the best I can
Tryin' to do what I was meant to do
But the people that I see they look worried as can be
And it looks as if they're doin' some wonderin' too

But I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Can't help but wonder where I'm bound

If you see me passin' by and you sit and you wonder why
And you wish that you were a rambler too
Just nail your shoes to the kitchen floor, lace 'em up and lock the door
And thank your stars for the roof that's over you

No, I can't help but wonder where I'm bound, where I'm bound
Can't help but wonder where I'm bound
