Well, it's half past two and the night ain't through, I'm gonna get myself a beer,
Fuck you, Nancy, I don't like dancing, let me just drink right here,
Well, I can't drive home so I guess I'll roam out and around the town,
I'm gonna keep on roamin' 'til I can't be found.
My mama wishes I'd go back to school,
My daddy thinks I'm a fool,
My baby sleeps next to me but won't fool around,
I'm gonna keep on roamin' 'til I can't be found.
I've been pickin' at dives since I learned to play guitar,
I've earned a Pabst Blue Ribbon at each and every bar,
The folks that don't like me don't understand my sound,
I'm gonna keep on roamin' 'til I can't be found.
My mama wishes I'd go back to school,
My daddy thinks I'm a fool,
My baby sleeps next to me but won't fool around,
I'm gonna keep on roamin' 'til I can't be found.
I don't regret any choices I have made,
Except the night I left the womb, I guess I should have stayed,
'Cause I'm not good company for any woman to keep around,
I'm gonna keep on roamin' 'til I can't be found.
My mama wishes I'd go back to school,
My daddy thinks I'm a fool,
My baby sleeps next to me but won't fool around,
I'm gonna keep on roamin' 'til I can't be found.
