Don’t ask me where I’m going-
Don’t ask me where I’m from.
I’m just a drifting dreamer-
Not real smart, and not real dumb.

Me and this old guitar-
Have traveled many roads,
I’ve sang out on the shoulder-
And in some really sad abodes.

I’ve serenaded ladies,
To try and win their hearts-
It’s hard to tell where ridicule
And scorning really starts.

To sing away the loneliness-
Is really quite a task-
I'm sure that you have questions-
But for heavens sake, Don’t ask.

I won't ask, but I will read. Love this.
