When will my heart stop roaming round Won't I ever settle down
And find me a woman I can love
Will I always be a rolling stone A lonely man without a home
Only looking out for number one
Boy, did it get so long, son, living by yourself
A man needs a woman to give his love to
I wasted many hours staring at the blue
Lord
Lord
Lord

It's a sad way to live when you've got nothing to lose
I wonder if I'll ever find
The kind of woman I've got in mind
To give the love I know lives deep in me
I roam around from place to place
I look around from place to place
I look for love in every pretty face
And the magic, Lord, I know will be in her smile
Lord, it gets so long, son, living by yourself
A man needs a woman to give his love to
I wasted many hours staring at the blue
Lord, it's a sad way to live when you've got nothing to lose
Yes, it's a sad way to live when you've got nothing to lose
I wasted many hours staring at the blue
