I’d rather take the subway train than take an aeroplane I’d rather hike the rough terrain this keeps me sane I don’t want to soar into the heavens If I get really bored, I’ll let you know then I’d rather drive the causeway, than take the highway I’d rather take the long way that’s just my way I don’t wanna look into the deep blue sea I read in a book what waits for me The silence of the depths reminds me In the darkness of the depths they’ll never find me I’m a land animal my feet are on the ground I’m a land animal my bones will be there to be found I don’t wanna look into the big blue sky I saw it in a book that’s not a great way to die Among a thousand pieces they’ll finally find my eye When I read the news releases I’m reminded why The silence of the depths reminds me In the darkness of the depths they’ll never find me I’m a land animal my feet stay on the ground I’m a land animal my bones will be there to be found I’m a land animal my bones will be there to be found

I wish I could sit all day Sing psychedelic songs and take your mind away I wish I could pray all day to God so big and strong But I don't have all day Cause I'm busy man I work all day I don't have time to sing or pray I don't drink much I smoke a little Always try to stay in touch so I don't lose my way Somehow all my past ambitions seem so unimportant now Living in the moment seems just fine Feels like I've been reconditioned ... I'm So Ordinary now Another growing soul doing time Oh, it’s simple man I take each day as it comes it goes away I don't ask much I'm satisfied while I'm on this crazy ride Somehow all my past ambitions seem so unimportant now Living in the moment seems just fine Feels like I've been reconditioned ... I'm So Ordinary now Another growing soul doing time Another faceless soul doing time Another timeless soul just doing fine

I've never been to Rome but I've been to Louisville Tennessee
I've never been to London but I've been to Ybor City
I've never been to Munich but I've been to  Austin Texas
I've never been to Paris I'm not a bit embarrassed
I grew up in a city and I don't know country ways

One of these days I gotta get up and I gotta get away
I'm a well-traveled man but I still got a whole world to see
I still got a whole world to see

I've never been to San Francisco but I've seen LA                                                        I've never been to New Orleans                I've had their Crawfish Ettouffee                  I chanted Hare Krishna though I've never been to India                                                I never worked in Bollywood but I prayed in West Virginia                                                I grew up in a city and I don't know mountain ways
One of these days I gotta get up and I gotta get away I'm a well-traveled man but I still got a whole world to see I still got a whole world to see  I thought about goin' to Indonesia                but I heard the girls in Polynesia Can make a man's life a little bit easier With my luck I'll wake up with a case of amnesia The great Ohio Valley was never up my alley I'll sail a ship to Maui and find myself in Bali I've never been to Cuba Puerto Rico or Aruba I'll try to fly to Adelaide and end up in Bermuda I grew up in a city I don't have sea farin' ways One of these days I gotta get up and I gotta get away I'm a well-traveled man but I still got a whole world to see
I still got a whole world to see
