1
When I was young, I watched the cars
2
When I was older, I drank in bars
3
When I was young, well, I chewed the leaves
4
When I was older, I drank with thieves
5
I found a love, she gave me dreams
6
She left me drunk in New Orleans
7
So cold and lonely, so all alone
8
I wished my heart was made of stone
9
I took the cold bright needle
10
I used it as a sword
11
My eyes have seen the glory of
12
The coming of the Lord
13
I burned across the Delta
14
I swam across the Ford
15
My eyes have seen the glory of
16
The coming of the Lord
17
When I was a young man, standing on this road
18
My empty belly, an aching hole
19
An old man said to me, "Kid don't you know?"
20
That it's the same wherever you go
21
I gambled in two graveyards
22
I won against the odds
23
With the saints and with the saviors
24
With the maggots and the Gods
25
I cursed the things they showed me
26
I could never see again
27
And the howling of the wind at night
28
I wrote upon the rain
29
I found the thing for which I prayed
30
And came back home to the USA
31
With a heart of stone, so now I know
32
That it's the same wherever you go
33
Wherever you go
34
Wherever you go
35
Wherever you go
36
Wherever you go
37
Come, come here we come
38
Come, come here we come
39
Come, come here we come
