I went out walking through streets paved with gold
Lifted some stones -
saw the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking under
an atomic sky
Where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns
Like the
tears when I said goodbye
Yeah, I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went
wandering
I went drifting through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or
freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church
house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it
I went out riding down that old eight-lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name
I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for
you
I went out there in search of experience
To taste and to touch and to
feel as much
As a man can before he repents
I went out searching, looking for one good man
A spirit who would not
bend or break
Who would sit at his father's right hand
I went out
walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I
was sure I was the one
Now Jesus, don't you wait up
Jesus, I'll be home
soon
Yeah, I went out for the papers
Told her I'd be back by noon
Yeah, I left with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking
for you
Yeah, I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went
wandering |
