Lyrics

I was a big wave surfer in Malibu
Cleaned the elephant cage at the Denver zoo
Spent a long summer with the lumberjack crew
Just to see what I could saw
But I did not know where to go
So I drank with the winos on Cannery Row
I got so high that it laid me low
And I'm goin' back to Yakima
Oh Yakima
The only place where I belong
Somewhere in between the dream
And the wandering
Oh Yakima
Who knows how it's really goin'
You might be right
You might be wrong
Or you might be in Yakima
I fell in with the K&A
They taught me how to rob a train
I took my licks and found a taste
For runnin' from the law
But they caught me outside Albany
They threw me in that ole Sing Sing
I got out for not bein' mean
And I'm goin' back to Yakima
Oh Yakima
The only place where I belong
Somewhere in between the dream
And the wandering
Oh Yakima
Who knows how it's really goin'
You might be right
You might be wrong
Or you might be in Yakima
I was an oyster farmer
I was a false alarmer
I was a radio DJ
Rodeo clown
Buskin' on the London Underground
Woke up on an island in the Puget Sound
Singin' for my supper
I was a high plains drifter
I was a Wall Street grifter
I was a two term president on the dole
Hot shot jumper from Idaho
Blood diamond miner in the heart of the Congo
Sometimes I don't even know my name
Cause I've wandered and I've wondered
And I've yondered and I've blundered
And I finally found what I was lookin' for
Cause I was always there in
Oh Yakima
The only place where I belong
Somewhere in between the dream
And the wandering
Oh Yakima
Who knows how it's really goin'
You might be right
You might be wrong
Or you might be in Yakima
You might be right
You might be wrong
Or you might be in Yakima
