Gabe Lee Wander No More Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Good Lord, where you been?
Can't you see the sorry shape I'm in?
Raggy clothes, hillbilly blues, dying to walk a mile in a rich man's shoes
Is it true, have you come, to make angels out of everyone?
I believe, I believe what you've done

[Chorus]
'Cause every night that I pray, my heavy knees hit the floor
Lord take my troubles away, don't let me wander no more
I'm just a scrap of a thing, near giving up on the shine
I'm getting ready to go, leave all my worries behind

[Verse 2]
Woah Mama, today's the day, I'll drive you straight across the USA
Out of Copper Springs by way of Hayman's Bluff
To diamond studded hills among the Texan Rough
Is it true, have you longed to escape from all discretion and wrong?
To fly away, fly away, get you gone

[Chorus]
'Cause every night that I pray, my heavy knees hit the floor Lord take my troubles away, don't let me wander no more
I'm just a ghost of a train, run out of parts to supply
I'm getting ready to go, leave all my worries behind
Come on

[Verse 3]
Hey darling, what's it gonna be, I think there's really something wrong with me
Lonely eyes and cheap perfume, are the only things that I can still remember you through
Is it true, have you heard, how the days are rushing by in a blur
Slow me down, slow me down, just say the words

[Chorus]
'Cause every night that I pray, my heavy knees hit the way
Lord take my troubles away, don't let me wander no more
I'm just a bird on the wing, bound for yonder blue sky
I'm getting ready to go, leave all my worries behind
I'm getting ready to go, leave all my worries behind
