Friends, countrymen, fellow americans
I just came back from overseas
And they’re carrying on about how we don’t go out not
Travelling
They doubt we even leave the house
I’m not mad at them
Cos for real there’s still some places we haven’t been
In fact I’m in the airport now, I’m going back again
Time’s a wasting and I’m impatient
I ain’t waiting, I’ve been put in for vacation
Ain’t saying no more man I’m going to pack
And when I hit the road I don’t know how to act
And if I like it I ain’t going back
We’re going round the globe
When will it stop, no-one knows
We’re going round the globe
Round and round it goes
Now it’s noble to act global, but not staying local
Sorry not me, too many places to go to
Like istanbul, not constantinople
Can’t I show you the world
Get out man why don’t you
Hopefully if you won’t go with me
You’ll still want to see the world beyond tv
Well I got my passport I’m ready to blast off
I asked for the same seat I had on the last tour
Ain’t taking no bags just the clothes on my back
And when I’m on the road I don’t know how to act
And if I like it I ain’t going back
We’re going round the globe
When will it stop, no-one knows
We’re going round the globe
Round and round it goes
Now I don’t care if it’s long or if it’s a short visit
Just come, countries look more different when you’re in
It
I’m going back to ny when the tour finishes
When I’m bored with it I’m back in a new york minute
Forget it stay stateside
I’m into the great wide open on the next thing smokin’
Took a train ride up to jfk
I just called to say bye
The place I’m going, wherever this plane flies
Ain’t taking no bag just my coat and my hat
And when I’m on the road I don’t know how to act
I don’t think I’m ever going back
