words and music by Arlo GuthrieTruth is you've been waiting so long
You're ripe and so insane
Can the tentacles of your mind stop the painHow long will you sit there wondering
What's happening to your heart
Can't you fell the love surround you - That's a startCHORUS:
I'll take to the road in a little while
Under cover of night
You come or you stay
Whatever seems rightI ain't looking for friends or lovers
Ain't looking for a pot of gold
Had it all when I was younger - It got oldWho will leave this world of sorrow
Who will die to all the fears
Kowning I'll be gone tommorow - Gone for yearsCHORUSSomewhere the sun's just rising
And the road comes in to view
There's a wanderer freed from dying - Could be youWho will pay the price for freedom
Learn the disciplines of the road
Many tried but few succeed - So I'm told
