Long Shot
Smell of freedom, taste of dust
City of gold or bust
Said my goodbyes, ain't goin' back now.
Such a strange and scenic route
To tryin' on that big town suit
There comes a timefor steppin' out.
Oh, I'm takin' that long shot
Maybe scratch this itch I've got, you never know
Oh, kick the pedal down all the way
Ain't waitin' on someday, here I go.
Took a ride through the heart of the beast
Dark detours, sparkling streets
I saw the light then I saw it scatter.
Fortune's smile is a fickle thing
King to pauper, pauper to King
But I'm still here and that's all that matters.
Oh, I'm takin' that long shot
Maybe scratch this itch I've got, you never know
Oh, kick the pedal down all the way
Ain't waitin' on someday, here I go.
(Hear the sound of that tail-wind blow)
(New day pullin' me down the road)
(Playin' my life on the radio)
I heard about dreams scrapin' the sky
Sweet angels singin' all night for a song
That's where I belong.
Oh, I'm takin' that long shot
Maybe scratch this itch I've got, you never know
Oh, kick the pedal down all the way
Ain't waitin' on someday, here I go, here I go
Yeah yeah, oh here I go
Baby, here I go.
