Travel
been to London to see the queen
Scotland yard has nothing on me
posed with Bobbies, felt some rain
loved the castles, wanted to stay
been to Scotland, drove on the left side
saw a yak grazing in the countryside
found I'm related to the house of Bruce
heard bagpipes and hung out at St. Andrews
been to Paris for twenty-four hours
saw the Louvre and the Eiffel tower
slept at the Hilton then flew home
gonna stay longer next time I go
been to most of the capital cities
the U.S. of A. sure is pretty
sampled the culture in New York City
didn't need a passport for any of these
been to Canada loved it eh?
some speak French but most speak English
went to the Gardens at the Empress Hotel
didn't have tea but it sure was swell
been to the beach down in old Mexico
when I'm there I don't want to come home
the sand, the sun, the sea and tide
the place I go to get my mind right
