Pioneer and Doctor
EEodelee aayday
Living by the river
Watched the sun go down
One last time
By the old fires burning
Chorus:
Hear him playin' his violin
Hear them singin'
The old songs
In my heart keepin time
Minstrel and thinker
EEodelee aayday
Can't make a living playing the wood
Heard about that the world was round
Time to set sail
Follow the sun
Sailed west on the ocean blue
EEodelee aayday
To a place where they felt brand new
Far and away from our view
And crooked smiles
Left us behind
They made it across the blue
Here's how I know
I hear him playin' his violin
I hear them singin' Singin'
Old songs
In my heart ain't so blue (keepin time)
Singing old songs
By the new fires burning
