The Whole World Round - The Dillards

I heard my neighbor’s rooster crow

Early in the day

I heard his axe beyond the hill

And now I’m bound away

For some men love the city life

Some men crave the town

But I’ll be bound for the lonesome woods

Where I can settle down

Fiddle and a bow and the fire light’s glow

You can hear that lonesome sound

I’ll leave behind my troublin' mind

And go the whole world 'round

The red squirrel leaves when the gray squirrel comes

The eagle nests alone

A hundred miles from a wagon track

Is where I’ll build my home

Fiddle and a bow and the fire light’s glow

You can hear that lonesome sound

I’ll leave behind my troublin' mind

And go the whole world 'round

I’ve seen the old man whittlin' wood

I’ve seen the streets of town

I’ll pack my goods for the Arkansas woods

And there I’ll settle down

Fiddle and a bow and the fire light’s glow

You can hear that lonesome sound

I’ll leave behind my troublin' mind

And go the whole world 'round
