I've seen the yellow lights go down the Mississippi I've seen the bridges of the world and they are for real I've had a red light off-the-wrist without me even getting kissed It still seems so unreal
I've seen the morning in the mountains of Alaska I've seen the sunset in the East and in the West I've sung the glory that was Rome And passed the 'Hound Dog' singer's home
It still seems for the best And I'm far, far a-way With my head up in the clouds And I'm far, far a-way With my feet down in the crowds Letting loose around the world But the call of home is loud Still as loud
