The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've got no roots baby
There's wind in my blood
Ain't nothing new
Like after the flood
The clouds I'm reading
My spirit is working
Long way go go baby
Long way to go
Long way to go honey
Got a long way to go now
A sight to inspire
Like steel through the fire
Can't stop wonderin'
Can't stop dreamin'
There's a key to this door
On a distant shore
Long way to go baby -- happy to be
Long way to go -- can't disagree
Long way to go sugar -- happy to see
Got a long way to go now
You are the flower
I am the bee
You are the brook
I am the sea
Long way to go baby -- happy to be
Long way to go -- can't disagree
Long way to go honey -- happy to see
Got a long way to go now
(inspired by T-Bone Burnett)
