Was born to be a stripper
Danced near every night
Takin’ tips from the guys
Her future wasn’t bright
Dad was a drifter
Showed up with no hype
Didn’t throw the ball with me
Would rather toke on his pipe
My brothers left home early
They weren’t very old
One to deal drugs
The other to fight the cold

Not everyone who wanders is lost
Us rollin’ stones don’t gather no moss
Just headed another way, not in retreat
We march to a different drum
We hear a different beat

Picked up a few tattoos
Somewhere along the way
Made a few friends
But nowhere did I stay
Downed a few ‘shrooms
Smoked a little weed
Had a few ladies
Just to satisfy a need
Workin’ nine to five
Ain’t the life I love
Performin’ and driftin’
That’s in my blood

Not everyone who wanders is lost
Us rollin’ stones don’t gather no moss
Just headed another way, not in retreat
We march to a different drum
We hear a different beat

Don’t know where I’m headed
Not sure where I’ll land
Wanna be a player
In a rock-n-roll band

I wander from town to town
Searchin’ for a gig
Lookin’ for the high life
Tryin’ to make it big

Don’t know when I’ll arrive
At my destiny
But I know there’s a future
For wanderers like me

Not everyone who wanders is lost
Us rollin’ stones don’t gather no moss
Just headed another way, not in retreat
We march to a different drum
We hear a different beat
