I went out walking through the streets paved with gold lifted some stones saw the skin and bones of a city without a soul I went out walking under an atomic sky where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns like the tears when I said goodbye CHORUS Yeah I went with nothing nothing but the thought of you I went wandering I went drifting through the capitals of tin where men can't walk or freely talk and sons turn their fathers in I stopped outside a church house where the citizens like to sit they say they want the kingdom but they don't want God in it CHORUS I went out with nothing nothing but the thought of you I went wandering I went out walking down that winding road where no one's trusting no one and conscience...a too heavy load I went out riding, down that ol'eight lane I passed by a thousand signs looking for my own name CHORUS I went with nothing but the thought you'd be there, too Looking for you I went out there in search of experience to taste and to touch and to feel's as much as a man can before he repents I went out searching, looking for one good man A spirit who would not bend or break Who could sit at his father's right hand I went out walking with a bible and a gun The word of God lay heavy on my heart I was sure I was the one Now Jesus, don't you wait up Jesus, I'll be home soon Yea I went out for the papers told her I'd be back by noon Yeah I left with nothing but the thought you'd be there too looking for you... Yeah I left with nothing nothing but the thought of you... I went wandering
