Lyrics[]

Oh, well, I'm the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are, well, you know that I'm around
I kiss 'em, and I love 'em, 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em, and I squeeze 'em; they don't even know my name

They call me "The Wanderer"
Yeah, the Wanderer
I roam around, around, around, around

Oh, well, there's Flo on my left arm, and there's Mary on my right-uh
And Janie is the girl, well, that I'll be with tonight-uh
And when she asks me which one I love the best-uh
I'll tear open my shirt, and I show her Rosie on my chest

'Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
I roam around, around, around, around

Oh, well, I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
And I'm as happy as a clown
I with my two fists of iron, but I'm going nowhere

Oh yeah, I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place; I roam from town to town
And when I find myself fa-fallin' for some girl
Yeah, I hop right into that car of mine; I drive around the world

Yeah, I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
I roam around, around, around, around, around
Let's go, yeah

Oh yeah, I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place; I roam from town to town
And when I find myself fa-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine; drive around the world

'Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
I roam around, around, around, around, around

'Cause I'm a wanderer
Yeah, a wanderer
I roam around, around, around, around, around, around

'Cause I'm a wanderer
I'm a wanderer

Behind the scenes[]

In July 2017, Dion DiMucci filed a lawsuit against Zenimax Media, Inc. over their use of his song in the 2015 "The Wanderer" trailer for Fallout 4. Dion claimed the trailer neglected his terms for using the song in marketing, because the trailer "featured repeated homicides in a dark, dystopian landscape, where violence is glorified as sport," thus making it apparently objectionable under his marketing terms.[1]

In January 2018, the Northern California district court granted ZMI's motion to compel arbitration.[2] Ultimately, on November 7, 2018, DiMucci filed a notice of voluntary dismissal with prejudice, withdrawing the suit with no ability to litigate the matter again.[3]
