I've seen many peopleAnd so many peopleSome are much younger peopleAnd some are so oldI've seen many placesAnd so many placesAnd where are the people going?Will they choose the road?I've read my factsAnd I've had my freedomI've set the rulesSo I don't have to eat themI'll betI'll have a chanceIf I just got oneI'll throw up the plansAnd leave it number oneI ain't full of lifeI ain't full of lifeI ain't full of lifeI ain't full of lifeIt seems so longBut it flies byAnd in the moments passingI'll bet no goldI have yet to wanderMany miles for yonderAnd with so much left to ponderI choose the roadI choose the roadI choose the roadI choose the roadI choose the roadI've paid my taxAnd I've got my freedomI've said thingsSo I don't have to heed themI'll pay the chanceIf I just got oneI'll throw out the pantsLeave with no burdenI've paid my taxAnd I've got my freedomI've said thingsSo I don't have to heed themI'll pay the chanceIf I just got oneI'll pay the chanceI'll throw out the pantsLeave with no burden
