lyrics

The farmer ploughs the land as the sun comes up
In the distance he can see his little buttercup
Her smile is growing everyday

He has a lot of cattle that he calls his kids
His family laughs, he says"It's just the way it is.
You've got to look after your own"

On the other side of town in the Catholic Church
The priest cries "Lord, my stomach hurts.
My faith has let me down again.


I led my wife and children to the promised land
Then let them all go when I opened my hand
I needed a life change at the time.

But I can't dwell on the painful past
And I can't make the slow go fast
Even if I swim in the salty sea
Or wherever I need to be"

The truck driver speeds through the centre of town
The old folks murmur, "I wish he would slow down"
But he's got to keep up with the times

His eyes are bloodshot from staring at the road
He thinks about his future and not being alone
But for now he is happy where he is at

And says: "I will go where the road will take me
Even if it's into the salty sea
The sun still shines on the lonesome road
Or wherever I need to go
Or wherever I need to go
To wherever I need to go
