Wandering Boy

Wandering Boy - Randy Newman

Written by：Randy Newman

Thank you for the party

We're always glad we came

I'm the only one from the family tonight

But I know they'd say the same

I came here with my father

Then I brought my wife

Three sons a daughter

Then the last baby boy

The little caboose we called him

The light of her life

And that's who I'm waiting for

Where is my wandering boy tonight

Where is my wandering boy

If you see him push him toward the light

Where is my wandering boy

He went off of that high board there

When he was 5 years old

Laughing like a maniac

Shining in the sun like gold

He was afraid of nothing then

He was loved by everyone

I see it clear as I see you

That day there in the sun

I hope he's warm and I hope he's dry

And that a stranger's eye is a friendly eye

And I hope he has someone

Close by his side

And I hope that he'll come home

Where is my wandering boy tonight

Where is my wandering boy

If you see him tell him everything's alright

Push him toward the light

Where is my wandering boy
