Wandering Spirit

When all twelve of the Apostles try to ring me on the phone

Take a message but I won’t return their call

For I have no eyes to see him and I thought I lost my way

And I know I’ve lost the keys to the door

And I climbed the highest mountain and I looked down at the sea

And I saw a ship a-sailing to the shore

I took a passage to the East and then I journeyed to the West

And I made love from Battambang to Baltimore

And I said, oh, am I running in a race?

I said, oh, am I getting anyplace?

And I said, oh, can I make it?

I’m a wandering spirit

Wandering spirit, yeah

Wandering spirit

And I’m a restless soul

I was a glutton at the banquet and I spilt the finest wine

Trod the pyramids and ruins of Angkor

And I kissed the Mona Lisa and had breakfast with the king

And I touched the nerves of nature in the raw

And I said, oh, am I running in a race?

I said, oh, am I getting anyplace?

And I said, oh, can I make it?

I’m a wandering spirit

Wandering spirit, yeah

Wandering spirit

And I’ve no place to call my own

I said, oh, am I running in a race?

And I said, oh, am I getting anyplace?

And I said, oh, can I make it?

I can’t make it

I’m a wandering spirit

Wandering spirit, yeah

I’m a wandering spirit

Wandering spirit, yeah

I’m a wandering spirit

Wandering spirit, yeah

Wandering spirit

Yeah, and I’ve no place to call my home
