From town to town, I wondered through the years
I sing my songs of life and love and tears
I walk with fools, but seek the wise
My bed the earth my canopy the skies
A restless soul, I play so many parts
A dream begins but ends before it starts
A market place, a tavern bar
I sing my songs where strangers are
What do I seek? I cannot say
I find my place, but then I walk away

[Refrain] :
A vagabond, that’s what they call me
I pass you by, but leave you with a song
A vagabond, of no importance
Just born to be a lonely vagabond

Hello goodbye I know I cannot stay
Some other town is calling me away
I look at those who fall in love
It’s something I know little of
And yet I love the life I lead
A place to sing is all I ever need

[Refrain]

A vagabond, of no importance
Just born to be a lonely vagabond
A lonely vagabond
