Kim Beggs Wanderer's Paean Lyrics

One cup of tea in the morning for me
A kiss while you sleep
The sun rising up brings a tear to my eye
My heart tells me get along my way

I heard the train last night, whistled refrain
hooo hooo hooo, wanderers paean
I heard the train last night, whistled refrain
hooo hooo hooo, get along my way

I'm the one from my kin whose blood won't stop burnin'
Wandering bones and skin
The saddle round my heart it cinches at night
When I start to thinkin' I'm home

You shone your love in this stone that ain't true
And my skies are heavy and blue
But with the clothes on my back, grub and coins in my sack
My heart tells me get along my way

Hand clasping hand, pull me up from the tracks
By strangers won't never look back
Boxcar my freedom, railroad my bath
Sundown by clickity clack
