Free and easy, that's my style
Howdy do me, watch me smile
Fare thee well me after a while
'Cause I gotta roam
And any place I hang my hat is home
Sweetening water, cherry wine
Thank you kindly, suits me fine
Kansas City, Caroline
That's my honeycomb
'Cause any place I hang my hat is home
Birds roosting in a tree
Pick up and go, and the going proves
That's how it oughta be
I pick up too when the spirit moves me
Cross the river, 'round the bend
Howdy stranger! So long friend!
There's a voice in the lonesome wind
Keeps whispering: Roam
'Cause any place I hang my hat is home
Birds roosting in a tree
Pick up and go, and the going proves
That's how it oughta be
I pick up too when the spirit moves me
Cross the river, 'round the bend
Howdy stranger!, So long friend!
There's a voice in the lonesome wind
Keeps on whispering: Roam!
I'm going where a welcome mat is
No matter where that is
'Cause any place I hang my hat is home
