Wherever I May Roam

Metallica

And the road becomes my bride

And the road becomes my bride

I have stripped of all but pride

So in her I do confide

And she keeps me satisfied

Gives me all I need

And with dust in throat I crave

Only knowledge will I save

To the game you stay a slave

Rover, wanderer

Nomad, vagabond

Call me what you will

But I’ll take my time anywhere

Free to speak my mind anywhere

And I’ll redefine anywhere

Anywhere I may roam

Where I lay my head is home, yeah

And the earth becomes my throne

And the earth becomes my throne

I adapt to the unknown

Under wandering stars I’ve grown

By myself but not alone

I ask no one

And my ties are severed clean

The less I have the more I gain

Off the beaten path I reign

Rover wanderer

Nomad vagabond

Call me what you will

Yeah you will

But I’ll take my time anywhere

I’m free to speak my mind anywhere

And I’ll never mind anywhere

Anywhere I may roam

Where I lay my head is home, yeah yeah

But I’ll take my time anywhere

I’m free to speak my mind

And I’ll take my find anywhere

Anywhere I may roam

Where I lay my head is home, I swear

But I’ll take my time anywhere

I’m free to speak my mind

And I’ll redefine anywhere

Anywhere I may roam

Where I lay my head is home, carved upon my stone

My body lie, but still I roam, yeah yeah

Wherever I may roam yeah yeah

Wherever I may roam

Wherever I may roam

Wherever I may roam

Wherever I may wander, wander, wander

Wherever I may roam

Yeah, yeah wherever I may roam

Yeah, yeah wherever I may roam

Wherever I may roam
