Lyrics
You're a runaway flower child of the land
Skipping and tripping over patches of sand
Now you're running far, as far as you can
To get far from home, far from home.
Yeah, the vistas are endless and the highway is long
Your friends are loose and you're singing a song
The car is old but the spirit is strong
To get far from home, far from home.
Follow your heart and see what it is you can find
You might run out of money but I know you won't run out of time.
And when you drive into a strange new town
Do you see cold faces and do you see frowns?
Does it feel like you've got no friends around
When you're far from home, far from home.
Follow your heart and see what it is you can find
You might run out of money but I know you won't run out of time.
So when they take advantage of you
Until your heart is breaking in two
Do you know what you're going to do?
'Cause you're far from home, far from home
Far from home.
