Restrictions: None
Wandering
I've always wanted to take a trip
To a far off sea orland,
I've always wanted to try to whip
The World with just one hand
I'd like to visit Bombat
Or go to Madrid, Spain
Or go on the road to Mandolay
Or see where Ferdinand was slain.
I'd like to go to Russia,
To see the Cossacks dance,
Or go see little Prussia,
Or visit far-off France.
There are dozens of places I'd like to go,
And things I'd like to see.
But I am just a wisher, so
I'll stay in the "Land of The Free".
Circa 1938-1942
