Up Around The Bend

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 ships behind

Come on __

We're going up around the bend

Bring a song and a smile for the banjo

Better get while the getting's good

Hitch a ride to the end of the highway

Where the neon __ wood

You can ponder perpetual motion

__ your mind on a crystal day

Always time for a good conversation

There's an ear for what you say

Catch a ride to the end of the highway

And we'll meet by the big red tree

There's a place up ahead and I'm going

Come along, come along with me
