lyrics
I wanna live in the countryside,
Where hills are gold and horses are wild,
I wanna be there when my ship comes in,
Watch it haul in, turn around again,
I wanna find a place no one knows,
Nothing behind me, just one dirt road,
Hop on a train, see where it leads,
Even the railroad has a heart that beats,
My mind's not gonna move, not for nothing,
I'm not gonna sit and wait for something good to come,
Cause I'm free as a bird,
Yes, I'm as free as can be,
I don't need nobody to tell me so,
I'll just backpack to Clarksdale,
Son House on my radio,
I wanna leave the grey behind and look for gold,
I wanna live in the countryside,
Big city lights leave nowhere to hide,
Concrete jungle, concrete land,
They should dig it all up, see the earth again,
Chorus,
Oh, does it matter if I get there?
I just want to sit upon that throne,
The grass may be green here on this side,
But that's not what I'm looking for,
I wanna go back to ‘39,
Sleep in a shack, drink whiskey and wine,
Find me the blues, the heart and the soul,
There's always been a pilgrim in me, I know,
Chorus.
