It's a wonder I can walk on painted avenues It's a wonder I can walk with holes all in my shoes When I was born they said my legs were ten feet tall It's a wonder I can walk at all It's a wonder I can sleep in a house that's up for sale It's a wonder I can sleep on a rusty bed of nails My head lay on the pillow My feet lay in the hall It's a wonder I can sleep at all High winds blow, deep waters flow I get caught up with the distant thunder I get so weak with wonder Very soon I will be under a river flow of rain It's a wonder I can think with my head all full of smoke It's a wonder I can think and a wonder you don't choke Thinking on my feet, you know, it's a wonder I don't fall It's a wonder I can think at all
