Inspired by the song "Still By The Roadside" by Michael Bennett
I heard a song on the radio today It piqued my wanderlust So I'm hitting the road with a sign That read "Asheville or bust" So it's on with my backpack And my zero bag It's down the road less traveled I am going stag So it's "so long" to you's The ones I watch go out of sight And I'm looking for greener pastures It's time to bed down for the night So I walk on to wherever The boundary is wide I'll keep walking on on this Earth Until it's time to walk to the other side (So tell Saint Peter to take his hand off the gate I still have some wanderlust I anticipate)
