lyrics

I ain’t got no home, I’m just a wandering round
Just a wandering refugee, I go from town to town
And everything is hard wherever I may go
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore

My brothers and my sisters are all upon this road
A hot and dusty hell that a million feet have trod
Armed men took my home and threw me from my door
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore

They came into our town and walked in our front door
Took away our children and broke my bottom jaw
My wife lay down and died there on the cabin floor
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore

I remember the sound of the loud American bombs
And I remember the statues of the tyrants been and gone
But now I worry all the time like I never did before
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore

And as I wonder round this world, it seems to me
That this is all a parody of what it ought to be
The violent get rich and the peaceful are all poor
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore
