Lyrics

Coffee and Whitey send their regards
They're better behaved than they were last March
When you came

I'm thinking of taking a trip somewhere
A one way ticket and see the world for a while
And I don't like the idea of putting any timeframe on it

Thailand, Burma, or Napal
Chile, Uruguay or Pero
And after that I'd love to visit Texas,
And then away up North or maybe out to the West Coast

And how's your family? And how are you?
The stars are shining here. Are they shining there too?
I bet you are, and I bet you're thriving
Moving along like you always do

Happiness is an open road and a story unfolding
And I write best, when all my pages got a little dirt on 'em
And I hope you know, wherever else you go,
You got a home wherever I am.

Big city lights have been keeping me blue.
Sometimes I love 'em but sometimes it's abuse
Feeling lost in a concrete jungle

I'm a creature of the earth ya know
To be in the wild suits me down to the bone
Where the only sounds I might hear
Are the songs of birds or a river flowing.

With no distractions just the wind in my hair
I take a deep breath and I disappear
And that's where I do my best thinking
Most of my dreaming and all of my healing

But I don't stay in the same place long
I've a restless spirit just moves me along
Just like you, and I bet you're smiling
And I'm thinking of ya like I often do

Happiness is an open road and a story unfolding
And I write best, when all the pages got a little dirt on 'em
And I hope you know, wherever else you go,
You got a home wherever I am.

And I hope you know, wherever else you go,
You got a home wherever I am.
