lyrics

I’m never gonna settle down
I’m moving from town to town
I answer that siren’s call
Whenever I hear it
I’ve got the troubadour spirit

I tried working for a steady wage
I felt trapped inside that cage
I’ve been trusted by those I love
Yet somehow I fear it
I’ve got the troubadour spirit

And I feel the longing in my soul
And my heart needs to fill that hole
And I hear the song inside my head
Does it really matter where I rest my head?

This time I’m gonna settle down
My feet are gonna touch the ground
Stay the course steady as she goes
That’s how I’ll steer it
I’ve got the troubadour spirit

I’m never gonna settle down
I’m still moving from town to town
I answer that siren’s call
Whenever I hear it
I’ve got the troubadour spirit
I’ve got the troubadour spirit
