lyrics

I'm crossing the great divide
Morning sun is shining bright
In a solitary light
First few hundred miles
I'd never gone alone
Behind the wheel
Didn't know where I would end up
Don't expect to find out now

Back to the open country
It's gettin' strange here
I'm broke but I'm happy
To live with the rocks and the woods
Winter times I've felt I died
But I'm happy to be alive

I've never liked being
In one place too long
Try to stay as long as it takes
But I'm tired of missing my love
And birds will fly
No matter what you try
It's more the way I feel
Leaves me with nothing to say

Two hundred miles past
Fourth of July Pass
