There's a place up a-head and I'm go-in'

just as fast as my feet can fly

Come a-way, come a-way if you're go-in',

Ooh!

verse 2.
Bring a song and a smile for the banjo,
better get while the gettin'sgood,
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway 
where the neons turn to wood.

CHORUS

verse 3.
You can ponder perpetual motion,
fix your mind on a crystal day,
Always time for a good conversation, 
there's an ear for what you say.

CHORUS-

verse 4.
Catch a ride to the end of the highway 
and we'll meet by the big red tree,
There's a place up ahead and I'm goin', 
come along, come along with me.

CHORUS-
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
