Dean Martin Meanderin` Lyrics

Meanderin` Lyrics

One day I went meanderin' to find myself a wife

A pretty miss to share my kiss and love me all my life

The lonely bachelor's life I led began to get me down

I bought a ring and everything and went right into town



I went (meanderin', meanderin'

Looking far and wide for a girl to be my bride

I went meanderin', meanderin')

Far from the old folks at home



I ran into a friend of mine while wandering down the street

He said he had a sister that I ought to meet

He took me home to meet her but she weighed two hundred ten

I shook my head and sadly said "oh here I go again"



I went (meanderin', meanderin'

Looking far and wide for a girl to be my bride

I went meanderin', meanderin')

Far from the old folks at home



I came across a pretty girl who said she'd love me so

But she would bring her mother with us everywhere we'd go

I was so happy on the day she said she'd be my wife

But when she told me her ma would live with us for life



I went (meanderin', meanderin'

Looking far and wide for a girl to be my bride

I went meanderin', meanderin')

Far from the old folks at home



Finally found myself a wife a gal who's sweet and true

And when I'm tempted to do something I shouldn't do

Then I remember days when things are not like they are now

Well I recall when I was just a bachelor and how



I went meanderin', meanderin'

For looking far and wide for a girl to be my bride

I went meanderin', oh meanderin'

Far from the old folks at home
