There's a place up ahead and I'm going Just as fast as my feet can fly Come away, come away if you're going Leave the sinking ship behind Come on the rising wind We're going up around the bend Bring a song and a smile for the banjo Better get while the getting's good It's a ride to the end of the highway Where the neon shines of wood Come on the rising wind We're going up around the bend You can find a perpetual motion Fix your mind on a crystal day Always time for good conversation There's an ear for what you say Come on the rising wind We're going up around the bend Catch a ride to the end of the highway And we'll meet by the big red creek There's a place up ahead and I'm going Come along, come along with me Come on the rising wind We're going up around the bend Come on the rising wind We're going up around the bend
