Good As Gone

A strange thought just crossed my mind paid the rains back in kind
'T was the thought of sweet May coming on
The days are running so slow, my heart is aching to go
And my feet surely itch for the road

Mm the long hot summer
Oh now the summer long

I have been tied to this land since the day I was planned
By the need to feed mmm my body and mind
Look you can work 'till you're gray, waste your whole life away
What security then do you find?

Mm the long hot summer
Oh now the summer long

I don't have no one to cheat, don't have no one to beat
You know I just need some room to uncurl
I don't have no aim in view, just some dreams to pursue
As I wallow around in the world

Things I must do, places to see
Things I must do now I've nothing now to hold me here
And I'll take the southward road
