It says...

The Wanderer is a song about redemption. A song about one man's search to find himself.

Now go and find yourselves:)

Songfacts:

Johnny Cash sang lead on this. U2 started writing it for Cash when they found out he was coming to Dublin for a show. They decided to keep it for themselves with Cash as guest performer.

The working title was "Johnny Cash On The Moon."

U2 recorded this as if they were a bad lounge act.

This was the last song on Zooropa. They wanted to end the album with something that should not be taken too seriously.

U2 never played this live.

About a minute after this ends on the CD version of Zooropa, an alarm goes off.

Bono: "One of the best things we've ever done, and I'm not even on it."
