i went to texas in a boxcar
i went through utah on my horse.
oh god i've been
all around this lonely world.

i've been to new york city, baby
i've seen the buildings reach the sky.
oh god i've been
all around this lonely world.

lord i've been all around
and if you want to know the truth
i feel the most at home
when there's hot desert beneath my feet!

left california in a hurry.
made it right to sante fe.
oh god i've been
all around this lonely world.

i ate creole with french ladies
during my stay in new orleans.
oh god i've been
all around this lonely world.

lord i've been all around
and if you want to know the truth
i feel the most at home
when there's hot desert beneath my feet!

i played the guitar in chicago.
played poker in omaha.
oh god i've been
all around this lonely world.

i made some buddies down in knoxville.
got in a fight down at the beach.
oh god i've been
all around this lonely world.

lord i've been all around
and if you want to know the truth
i feel the most at home
when there's hot desert beneath my feet!
