lyrics
When I was 25
I rode the Greyhound Bus
All across this land
I called my mom
From every town on every payphone collect
And she said its ok
Penn Station, Youngstown
Indiana, Chicago
And then I headed to Pierre
Norman picked me up
In his pickup truck in Mission
Just like a friend
Feel like I lost my way
and I've got nothing to say
Feel like I lost my way
Spent time with the kids
Choppin' wood and diggin' dirt
'Til the sun went down
Then we'd go to grandma Mary's
Light a fire to heat the stones
And sing our prayer
I got lost out in the cold
Lookin' for somebody else's stuff
When I ran into a bear
He asked who I was and what I needed
And I told him
Its right over there
Feel like i'm on my way
But I've got nothing to say
Feel like i'm on my way
Feel like I'm on my way
Rode a green tortoise
Saw a miracle and woke up
Just north of San Fran
I took a train from downtown
To visit an old friend
Who's name was Strange
Years gone by
I looked up and found a wife
A psychic told me so
We had some kids out on a farm
Clear Water, Seldom Seen
And they're doin' alright
Feel like I found my way
And I've got something to say
Feel like I found my way
Feel like I found my way
Feel like I found my way
I rode the Greyhound Bus
All across this land
I called my mom
From every town on every payphone collect
And she said its ok
Penn Station, Youngstown
Indiana, Chicago
And then I headed to Pierre
Norman picked me up
In his pickup truck in Mission
Just like a friend
Feel like I lost my way
and I've got nothing to say
Feel like I lost my way
Spent time with the kids
Choppin' wood and diggin' dirt
'Til the sun went down
Then we'd go to grandma Mary's
Light a fire to heat the stones
And sing our prayer
I got lost out in the cold
Lookin' for somebody else's stuff
When I ran into a bear
He asked who I was and what I needed
And I told him
Its right over there
Feel like i'm on my way
But I've got nothing to say
Feel like i'm on my way
Feel like I'm on my way
Rode a green tortoise
Saw a miracle and woke up
Just north of San Fran
I took a train from downtown
To visit an old friend
Who's name was Strange
Years gone by
I looked up and found a wife
A psychic told me so
We had some kids out on a farm
Clear Water, Seldom Seen
And they're doin' alright
Feel like I found my way
And I've got something to say
Feel like I found my way
Feel like I found my way
Feel like I found my way
