I got an ol' slouch hat,
got my roll on my shoulder
I'm as free as a breeze
an' do as I please,
just a bummin' around . . .
Gotta million friends,
I don't feel any older
I've got nothin' to lose
not even the blues,
just a bummin' around . . .
Whenever worries start
to botherin' me( start botherin' me! )
I grab my coat, my ol' slouch hat,
hit the trail again,
you see . . .
I ain't got a dime,
don't care where I'm goin'
I'm as free as a breeze
an' do as I please,
just a bummin' around!
[ instrumental break ]
I hit the trail again,
you see . . .
I ain't got a dime,
don't care where I'm goin'
I'm as free as a breeze
an' do as I please,
just a bummin' around . . .
just a bummin' around . . .
just a bummin' around . . .
just a bummin' around . . .
