the great unknown


nothing is better
than waking up
on a cold, clear morning
in a pick up truck
with miles behind
and miles to go
and the best part of all
is nobody knows

I'm at a rest stop
on my way down south
the taste of adventure
is there in my mouth
so many roads
too many directions
any way out
that is my selection

          I don't need to stay at home
          I'm heading to the great unknown

I don't know what
I'm going to find
but I'm leaving all my
neighbors behind
all my co-workers
my family and friends
I'm headed out fast
where the rainbow ends

          I don't need to stay at home
          I'm heading to the great unknown

where I'll be tyomorrow
I do not know
all that's certain
is that it's time to go
where high is the sky
and clean is the air
maybe you
can meet me there

          I don't need to stay at home
          I'm heading to the great unknown
