I was born with wandering roots.
My mother was a military brat.
My father is a gypsy.
I played in a band - the Gypsies.
Now I'm a Wandering Root.
I have a wandering ear.
I've walked thousands of miles,
written hundreds of songs,
thrown hundreds away.
I'll write a thousand more.
Wander on...

Anybody who even knows, these days, who f'in Lightnin' is, is a friend of mine, never mind someone who's been influenced. I've been under the influence of Lightnin' Hopkins for many years and have maybe found two other people who know who he is. Right on! Keep doin' what your doin'! Peace and Love, Beth
Hey Shawn, will definitely try and make it down to the airport. It's not far from home at all! A couple of cold ones and the wandering roots, what could be better than that bro!
