I’ve got a mountain to climb before I get over this hill,
I’ve got a world to unwind before I ever sit still,
I’ve got a hard row to hoe before my seed is sown,
I’ve got a long way to get before I get back home.

Well I’ve got so much to put down before that’s all she wrote,
I’ve got so much to give before my heart ain’t so broke,
I’ve got to find myself before I can ever be alone,
I’ve got a long way to get before I get back home.

And there’s an ocean of reason that I can’t explain,
and there’s the weight of the world like a ball and chain,
there’s the big black hole inside me that I’ve fulled up with stones,
I’ve got a long way to get before I get back home.

There’s a man I’ve never met before, who looks a lot like me,
there’s a little place called ‘heaven’ that I’ll probably never see,
and there’s a thing called ‘peace of mind’ that I have never known,
I’ve got a long way to get before I get back home.
