Sun's up high in the clear blue sky Though my mouth's getting dry, still I sing Sun burns down through my fears as it's burned away the years All the laughter and the tears are now missing And I wonder where the time has gone And I wonder, "Where did I go wrong?" I've wasted all my time trying so hard to find the rhyme I've lost the one thing truly mine which was my future Though I still have the past, I just don't know if it will last Oh it's disappearing fast, I am so unsure Oh I wonder what I'll find on down the road Will I blunder and drop my shouldered load Still I travel on and I rest from dusk 'til dawn Until the blinding sun has shone ahead to guide me Days pass by the same, the place I'm going has no name I just hope fortune and fame will come and find me Oh I ask myself, "Is this what you want from life?" And I reply, "Oh it's worth the pain and strife" If you should see me there on the road to nowhere Looking for my share of the Big Time Just leave me be, it's all up to me you see Nobody rides for free on this sunshine so fine Is it too much to ask for some water from your flask See it's much too hot to bask in this sunshine so fine
