There's a place up ahead and I'm goin'
Just as fast as my feet can fly
Come away, come away if you're goin'
Leave the sinkin' ship behindCome on the risin' wind,
We're goin' up around the bendOhBring a song and a smile for the banjo
Better get while the gettin's good
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway
Where the neon's turn to woodCome on the risin' wind,
We're goin' up around the bendOhYou can ponder perpetual motion,
Fix your mind on a crystal day,
Always time for a good conversation,
There's an ear for what you sayCome on the risin' wind,
We're goin' up around the bend.YeahOhCatch a ride to the end of the highway
And we'll meet by the big red tree,
There's a place up ahead and I'm goin'
Come along, come along with meCome on the risin' wind,
We're goin' up around the bendYeahDo do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do do yeah
Do do do do
Do do do do
