I can't stop here in this town cuz I'm a through hiker, babe, and I can't stick around. And I'm not stopping in this life, there's plenty of worlds to see, but I'll stay the night Do you have a bed for me? A couch to lay upon? I want be no trouble mama, and I will leave by dawn. I'm not weary from the miles and miles behind and I don't wanna be alone tonight, girl, do you catch my mind? Well, sometimes I'm by myself once I had a hound, be he ran off with another hiker in a Green Mountain town. I seen the Rocky Mountains, I been the Appalachain way, and I don't mind tomorrows if I don't mind todays. And I don't mind traveling around with my belongings on my back. And when I think I know where I'm at, you know I'm way off track. I got no destination, the people, they accuse. Thery think that i am aimless and they think I got the blues. And I try to tell them, Lord, I try to explain. Sometimes they listen, but you know they just mostly walk away. Life is a journey, that's the head on the nail The path you're on, that's the key, and not the end of the trail. Slow down like me now, mama, you might have a ball. You wouldn't want to die to find out you hadn't lived at all. I'm a through hiker, babe, so now you know. Would you like to come along with me, cuz it's time to go. Down the road's a mountain, the other side of the stream. I say we make some tracks now and follow our dream.
