I'm heading down this highway
I'm heading down this road
I'm heading down this highway
It's a long road, I'm told
But I don't mind
No, no, no and I don't care
It's a hundred-thousand miles we've gotta go
Yeah!
I'm sailing on this ocean
I'm sailing on this sea
I'm sailing on this ocean
To see what you can see
But I don't mind
No, no, no and I don't care
It's a hundred-thousand miles I've gotta go
Yeah!
I'm climbing through this forest
I'm climbing through the wood
Sometimes it's hard to see the light
But I know you could
But I don't mind
No, no, no and I don't care
It's a hundred-thousand miles I've gotta go
Yeah!
I'm drifting through the desert
Drifting through the sands
Climbing all the mountains
Checking out the land
Running with the rivers
Racing up the shore
And jumping off the cliffs, boys
'cause all I want is more, all I want is more
And it won't be long now
'till we'll be knock-knock-knocking on your door
And it won't be long now
'till we'll be knock-knock-knocking on your door
And it won't be long now
'till we'll be knock-knock-knocking on your door
We're heading down this highway
We're heading down this road
We're heading down this highway
It's a long road, I'm told
But I don't mind
No, no, no and we don't care
It's a hundred-thousand miles we've gotta go
Yeah!
