Little boy with your backpack on
looks like it weighs a tonne
are you a nomad with that bag?
where do you go when your day is done?
keeps me fit
staves the chill off my back
got all the things I need
packed it all in my backpack
Not a schoolboy any more
but you've still got it on
you saying carrying all that weight
is just to keep you strong?
I'm a nomad with this bag
it's the only home I've got
I sleep indoors at night
but my bag's a safer spot
Until I find a place
where I can finally unpack
I'm carrying this load myself
right upon my back
