First, you must travel a long deslolate road
this road you travel will seem like nowhere
but nowhere will turn into somewhere
keep your head up bubba, dont let nobody get ya down

i know what its like
i know what its like to be nowhere
i know what its like

let these cats amuse you with comical depictions
but where im from me and brooks no honorable afflictions
love some jimmy carter, but we neve
