Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Well, I'm the type of guy who will never settle down

Where pretty girls are, well you know that I'm around

I kiss 'em and I love 'em, 'cause to me they're all the same

I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em, they don't even know my name

They call me the wanderer, yeah, the wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around

[Verse 2]

Oh, well there's Flo on my left and then there's Mary on my right

But Janie is the girl, well that I'll be with tonight

And when she asks me which one I love the best

I'll tear open my shirt and show her Rosie on my chest

'Cause I'm a wanderer, yeah, a wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around

[Verse 3]

Well, I roam from town to town

I go through life without a care

And I'm as happy as a clown

With my two fists of iron, I'll be goin' nowhere

[Verse 4]

I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around

I'm never in one place, I roam from town to town

And when I find myself fallin' for some girl

Yeah, I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world

Yeah, I'm a wanderer, yeah, a wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around, around, around

[Verse 5]

Well, I roam from town to town

I go through life without a care

And I'm as happy as a clown

With my two fists of iron, I'll be goin' nowhere

[Verse 6]

Yeah, I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around

I'm never in one place, I roam from town to town

And when I find myself fallin' for some girl

Yeah, I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world

'Cause I'm a wanderer, yeah, a wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around

[Verse 7]

They call me the wanderer, yeah, the wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around, around, around

[Verse 8]

They call me the wanderer, they call me the wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around

They call me a wanderer, yeah, a wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around, around, around

[Verse 9]

They call me the wanderer, yeah, the wanderer

I roam around, around, around, around, around

'Cause I'm a wanderer, yeah, a wanderer

I roam around, around
