Freeway

let’s go down to the river bridge
see the city upside down
that’s a good way to start the day
that’s a way to know the earth is round
then let’s go down to the freeway
and let a few cars and trucks run thru our minds
and feel the earth revolve
take time to put our hands and feet upon the ground
let’s go down to the railroad tracks
count the boxcars on the train
most of them will be empty
and maybe our heads will feel the same
then let’s go down to the freeway
and let a few cars and trucks run thru our minds
and feel the earth revolve
take time to put our hands and feet upon the ground
my feet have found freedom
your feet are cold
I’m so tired of driving
and you say you’re tired of growing old
so let’s go down to the freeway
and let a few cars and trucks run thru our minds
and feel the earth revolve
take time to put our hands and feet upon the ground
even peace has its problems
(don't think too much, there’s much to think about)
like the unspoken words that turn your mind
(don't think too much just touch your own way out)
words that turn to troubled silence
(don't think too much, there’s much to think about)
like the thoughts that only take away your time
(don't think too much just touch your own way out)
