lyrics

I've been travelling for many a year
Never had a place to call my own
Friends come and go but the road stays the same
There's a comfort and safety in being alone

The earth is my pillow, the wind is my song
I pass through prairie and canyon
Sun burns by day, night is the time
The moon's my light and companion

But I'm tired so tired
My bones they ache and I'm turning to dust
But I'm tired so tired
My soul won't stop walking, but my body must

Met a lady at a watering hole
Her heart was wild and free
So we settled down and I worked at a ranch
She said there's a comfort and safety in being with me

Hair gold as fields of corn, eyes brown as the soil
Proud and strong as a cherrybark tree
Her love as wide as the dusty planes
She became the world to me

But I'm tired so tired
The vista's staying still, with the same old sky
But I'm tired so tired
My feet are getting restless, no matter what I try

But I'm tired so tired
Highway stretched before me horizon full of haze
But I'm tired so tired
Heading south, three hundred miles, dry wind fills my days
