Lyrics
I don’t know where I’m bound
I don’t know where I’m bound
Whistles calling me away
Leaving at the break of day and
I don’t know where I’m bound
Can’t stand locks, bars or doors
Mean cops insanity and wars
Gotta find a place of peace
Till then much travellin’ on seas
But I don’t know where I’m bound
There’s gotta be a place for me
Under some green growing tree
Clear cool water running by
An unfettered view of the sky
But I don’t know where I’m bound
When I die don’t bury me
Cause then I must be free
Cremate my body with a grin
Throw my ashes to the wind
Cause I don’t know where I’m bound
I don’t know where I’m bound
I don’t know where I’m bound
Whistles calling me away
Leaving at the break of day and
I don’t know where I’m bound
Got myself a little gall
She has been a damn right pall
That ol’ highway’s calling me
And free I gotta be but
I don’t know where I’m bound
