Lyrics Wayfaring Stranger - Dark Dark Dark

Wayfaring Stranger

I am a lone, wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this town of woe
There are no sins, no fear of danger
In that bright land to which I go
I’m going home to see my father
I’m going there, no more to roam
I’m only going over the same street
I’m only going over home
I know dark clouds will gather around me
I know my way is rough and steep
Beautiful fields lie just beyond me
Souls went deep on this old street
I’m going there to meet my mother
She said she’d meet me, when I come
I’m only going over the same street
I’m only going over home
I know my lady, yeah, she would leave me
But she can’t, she’s hooked on me
O my lady, yeah, I would leave her
But I can’t, I’ve got my needs
I’m going home to see my baby
It won’t be long and I’ll be there
I’m only going over the same street
I’m only going over home
