(John A. Lomax - Artie Large)
I've walked the streets of small Texas towns
I've seen the snowfalls in New York
For a young man I guess I've been around
But when am I ever gonna settle down?
I have seen Grand Canyon and the Great Niagara Falls
Had chains on my legs in Wichita
Yeah for a young man I guess I've been around
But when am I ever gonna settle down?
I've known girls from Maine to Alabam
I've loved the Cajun Queens down in Louisian
What will she be like when I reach that next town
Will that be the woman to make me settle down?
Well I loved me a Georgia peach but she turned out wrong
She didn't move me so I moved on
For a young man I guess I've been around
But when am I ever gonna settle down?...
I've walked the streets of small Texas towns
I've seen the snowfalls in New York
For a young man I guess I've been around
But when am I ever gonna settle down?
I have seen Grand Canyon and the Great Niagara Falls
Had chains on my legs in Wichita
Yeah for a young man I guess I've been around
But when am I ever gonna settle down?
I've known girls from Maine to Alabam
I've loved the Cajun Queens down in Louisian
What will she be like when I reach that next town
Will that be the woman to make me settle down?
Well I loved me a Georgia peach but she turned out wrong
She didn't move me so I moved on
For a young man I guess I've been around
But when am I ever gonna settle down?...
