The Teskey Brothers - Man of the Universe

Yeah, oh

Well, I've been running since I was a child
Running like a river after the rains have died
Ain't never had one place to call my home
Lay my head in a different place unknown

I wake up early and I wake up late
But I never had time to hesitate
I pick up my paper and I pick up my bread
There's room on the road ahead

I don't want no country to call my own
I don't need one place to call my home
There ain't no one place or people that are better or worse
I'm a man of the universe, yeah

Like a good strong flowing river that's never been dammed
Never had to change, never had to plan
To collect too much wealth, it's a curse
We never had the sense to change, what's worse

Never needed no land, never need no borders
Never needed to stay in one place to count up pennies or quarters
Never had enough of them to put in my own purse
I'm a man of the universe

But I don't want no country to call my own
I don't need one place to call my home
There ain't no one place or people that are better or worse
I'm a man of the universe, yeah, yeah, yeah

But I don't want no country to call my own
I don't need one place to call my home
There ain't no one place or people that are better or worse
I'm a man of the universe

But I don't want no country to call my own
I don't need one place to call my home
There ain't no one place or people that are better or worse
I'm a man of the universe
I'm a man of the universe
I'm a man of the universe

And I'm not from here, not from here
I don't need, I don't need no fences to pull a rope around me
Wow, yeah
I don't need, yeah
