Covered As: Wherever I May Roam by Apocalyptica
Wherever I May Roam by Iron Horse
Mashed Up As: The Nightmare (Muggs Mash-Up) by Everlast
...And the road becomes my bride
I have stripped of all but pride
So in her I do confide
And she keeps me satisfied
Gives me all I need
...And with dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave
Rover, wanderer
Nomad, Vagabond
Call me what you will
But I'll take my time anywhere
Free to speak my mind anywhere
And I'll redefine anywhere
Anywhere I may roam
Where I lay my head is home
...And the earth becomes my throne
I adapt to the unknown
Under wandering stars I've grown
By myself but not alone
I ask no one
...And my ties are severed clean
The less I have the more I gain
Off the beaten path I reign
Rover, wanderer
Nomad, Vagabond
Call me what you will
But I'll take my time anywhere
I'm free to speak my mind anywhere
And I'll never mind anywhere
Anywhere I may roam
Where I lay my head is home
But i'll take my time anywhere
Free to speak my mind
And I'll take my find anywhere
Anywhere I may roam
Where I lay my head is home
Carved upon my stone
My body lie, but still I roam
Wherever I may roam
Metallica

The easy way for me to recognize this song is the intro. It then gets heavy after the intro. GREAT STUFF!!!

It's not just about touring Poop. It's all about Road Rage and stuff. A soft and egypt kind of instrumental going on intro. And follow up by raging hitting snare drumming, and a pick slide by james exploding into the verse. Each line of the verse such as "..and the road becomes my bride" was sung low and then again with the normal voice. Very nice song of people who travel alot. Thinking of tour makes me think of Cliff. =(

Even though the song maybe about touring, a different perspective is foreseen in my eyes. The lyrics are the stronghold of the piece, even though the music is highly enjoyable as well. However, this track isn't one of Metallica's standout songs.

It may not be, but i think this is one good wah solo down in history.

This song kicks so much ass. I would digress from the thoughts of PS, as this is not the best touring song ever written - I give that to "Turn the Page" from Bob Seger - BUT this is right up at the top and a damn fine addition to the Met catalog.
