As A Young Man He Yearned

As a young man he yearned for places elsewhere So he went to see life in the big World out there And the lust for the wander is in him today In any one place his is not a long stay He does not have children or a partner or wife Though he has had quite a few sexual flings in his life He has not been back to his hometown for years But he is one who lives without nostalgic tears In his late forties in his brown hair some grey He is one who has known of a better physical day The freeways and highways he has driven up and down He has worked on building sites in many a city and town A steel fixer by trade he earns a good pay In any one place his is not a long stay.
