Open Road, Open Sky

In my history, I've tamed wild animals--but I'm more famed
because I've really trained meself--
to aspire as high as anything else I see!
Whatever I wish, I'll be-- if the wish appeals to me!
Yes, the circus life taught me a lot--
Now the circus is finished, but I am not!

I'm unafraid; if fortune's down and dark,
I'll eat my breakfast on tomorrow's question mark--
Adventure's in me brain, why any lion can tell
I always hold the whip, and never let it slip
Whatever comes, I'll take the good . . . and send the rest to hell!

Open road! Roammmmmmming--free as a breeze;
What's to stop me and defy?
I can live as I please--open road, open sky!

My lion-taming acting was--enough to create quite a buzz!
From Timbuktu to Samarkand, I wowed them in the hinterland
I was king of the 'King of the Beasts' on the stage,
Why, the public wouldn't let me out of my cage;
They loved it when the lion licked my paws--
I got the lion's share of their applause!

I roam with the bold and the brave when the bold are gone,
but there's a thing worth more than gold I crave!
I must go on--the open road!

Roammmmmmmming free as the breeze--
What's to stop me and defy? I can live as I please!
Whatever I wish I'll be, if the wish appeals to me--
Open road, open sky!!
