i went out walking
Through streets paved with gold
Lifted some stones
Saw the skin and bones
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking
Under an atomic sky
Where the ground wont turn
And the rain it burns
Like the tears when i said goodbye
Yeah i went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
 
I went drifting
Through the capitals of tin
Where men cant walk
Or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they dont want god in it
 
I went out riding
Down that old eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name
 
I went with nothing
But the thought youd be there too
Looking for you
 
I went out there
In search of experience
To taste and to touch
And to feel as much
As a man can
Before he repents
 
I went out searching
Looking for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his fathers right hand
I went out walking
With a bible and a gun
The word of god lay heavy on my heart
I was sure i was the one
Now jesus
Dont you wait up
Jesus
Ill be home soon
Yeah i went out for the papers
Told her id be back by noon
 
Yeah i left with nothing
But the thought youd be there too
Looking for you
 
Yeah i left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
