Edgar Albert Guest - I See You've Travelled Some

Wherever you may chance to be — wherever you may roam, br Far away in foreign lands; or just at home sweet home; br It always gives you pleasure, it makes your heart strings hum br Just to hear br The words of cheer, br 'I see you've travelled some.' br br When you get a brother’s greeting, and he takes you by the hand, br It thrills you with a feeling that you cannot understand, br You feel that bond of brotherhood, that tie that’s sure to come br When you hear him say br In a friendly way br 'I see you've travelled some.' br br And if you are a stranger, in strange lands all alone br If fate has left you stranded, dead broke and far from home, br Oh, it's a grand and glorious feeling, it thrills you; makes you numb, br When he says with a grip br Of fellowship, br 'I see you've travelled some.' br br And when your final summons comes, to take a last long trip, br Adorned with Lambskin Apron White and gems of fellowship — br The Tiler at the Golden Gate, with Square and Level and Plumb br Will size up your pin br And say 'Walk In: br I see you've travelled some.
