Walkabout

Feels like it’s time to go walkabout
Set my feet upon the naked ground
Nothing’s wrong that I want to talk about
Just gotta sort it out before I’m homeward bound

I’m going deep inside the desert country
Where you feel so small that you could disappear
And only love can save your soul from falling
When you’re calling and no one else can hear

I came upon a starving man with a toothpick in his mouth
He used to be a nobleman, now he’s a beggar for the truth

It was time to go walkabout, find out what it’s all about
Nothing to get sore about, he had to walk it out, walk it out . . .

I hear the sweet sound of a violin
And a few old friends are gathered round the fire
Making their musical offering
I have no song to sing, and not the least desire

Things can fall apart sometimes before they ever take shape
You can’t depend on words and rhymes, what difference do they make?

When it’s time to go walkabout, find out what it’s all about
Nothing to get sore about, just gotta walk it out, walk it out . . .


Think I feel the weather turning
The air’s so thick that I can hardly breathe
Thunderclouds, there’s a big storm coming
I’d start running if I weren’t on my knees

The rain is beating down so hard and the ground’s like wet cement
One step at a time they say, you’ll get there in the end

When it’s time to go walkabout, find out what it’s all about
Nothing to get sore about, just gotta walk it out, walk it out . . .

Feels like it’s time to go walkabout
Set my feet upon the naked ground
Nothing’s wrong that I want to talk about
Just gotta sort it out, and then I’m homeward bound
