Lyrics John Lee Hooker

John Lee Hooker

I'm Wanderin'

I been driftin', like a ship out on the foam

Well, I'm wanderin', like a ship out on the foam

Well, I ain't got nobody, in the world to care for me

Well, my baby would only take me back again

Oh, would only take me back again

'Cause I ain't got nobody to speak a word for me

Hmm, won't you give me one more chance?

Hmm, won't you give me one more chance?

'Cause I ain't got nobody, baby, to speak a word for me

Ah, but I ain't

I declare I ain't got nobody, babe

Honey child, to speak a word for me

I, I, babe, I'm a big world by myself

Oh, yeah, honey child, I'm by myself

I'm way down here, babe

Way, way down here, babe, honey child, by myself

Hmm, hmm, you know I feel so bad

Honey give me one more chance

I ain't got nobody, babe, speak a word for me, babe

I've been, I'm, give me one more chance, give me one more chance

Hmm, hmm, gimme babe, honey, one more chance

I'm wanderin' babe, just like a ship lost on the foam

Hmm, hmm, hmm, you know I'm lost, pretty baby

Just like a ship lost out on the foam
