Wayfaring Stranger

(앨범: Wanderin' - 1955)

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
A-traveling through this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toil nor danger
In that bright world to which I go

I'm going there to meet my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just a-going over Jordan
I'm just a-going over home

I'm just a poor and lonesome traveler
Behind the mule that's awful slow
A-plowing on to death and worry
The only place that I can go

I'm going there to meet my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just a-going over Jordan
I'm just a-going over home

My father lived and died a farmer
A-reaping less than he did sow
And I just follow in his footsteps
A-knowing less than he did know

I'm going there to meet my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just a-going over Jordan
I'm just a-going over home

Going over home...
