Folksmen

The Folksmen is a fictional musical group created by the satirical American comedy troupe, The Christopher Guest Ensemble. They rose to fame with their mockumentary film "A Mighty Wind" in 2003, which parodied folk music and the folk music revival of the 1960s. The members of the Folksmen are played by actors Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer, who are all well-known for their comedy and improvisational skills. The group's music is a humorous and satirical take on traditional folk music, and their performances often involve comical banter and absurd situations. more »

My mama was the cold North wind,
My daddy was the son, of a railroad man from west of hell,
Where the trains don't even run...

Never heard the whistle of a southbound freight,
Or the singing of it's driving wheel,
No I, never did not wanderin'
Never did not wanderin'
Never did not wanderin' after all.

They say the highways' just one big road,
And it goes from here to there,
And they say you carry a heavy load,
When you're rolling down the line somewhere...

Never seen the dance of the telephone poles,
As they go whizzin' by,
No I, never did no wanderin'
Never did no wanderin'
Never did no wanderin' after all.

Never did no wanderin'... high!
Never did no wanderin'... low!

Now a sailor's life is a life for him,
But it never was for me,
And I never soared where the hawk may soar,
Or see what the hawk might see,

Never hiked to heaven on a mountain trail,
Never rode on a river's rage...
No I, never did no wanderin'
Never did no wanderin'
Never did no wanderin' after all.

Never did no wanderin'
Never did no wanderin'
Never did no wanderin' after all.

Never did no wanderin' ...after ......all.
