Lyrics

Well I was toting my pack along the dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
If your goin' to Winnemucca, Mack with me you can ride
So I hopped into his cab and then I settled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, "Listen bud, I've traveled every road in this here land"
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere
Now we in Straight No Chaser have been all across
This great country of ours
We've toured from California to Maine
We've toured from Florida to Alaska
We've been all over the place doing shows
And you know, that gave Mike, Mike Luginbill
Mike back there, raise your hand Mike
Aw, nobody's claiming Mike
Mike decided, you know what, it'd be a great idea
If we did a song where we named as many of the cities
Where we've toured as we possibly could
I think he squeezed ninety cities into this next song
And then, and then Mike had another great idea
And that was to make somebody else sing the solo
So he found somebody who may have complained
That the tenors always get to sing the solos and the melody
Which is me, as we remember I'm a bass
I don't get to sing these lyrics
So now I get to sing all the lyrics, so
Coming up here I'm gonna pack ten years of not singing lyrics
Into about two and a half minutes, so wish me luck
I've been to Chicago, Fargo, Minnesota
Buffalo, Toronto, Winslow
Pensacola, Omaha, Tulsa
Ottowa, Oklahoma, Tampa
Panama, Mattawa, La Paloma
Bangor, Baltimore, Salvador
Amarillo, Tocapilla, Barranquilla
Amperdillo, I'm a killer
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere
It was also Mike's idea to go faster every verse
Okay, that went pretty well, I think we got this
Just a little faster, okay, that's fine, that's fine
Let me think about this for a second
Alright, I think I'm ready
Boston, Charleston, New Orleans
Louisiana, South Bend, Indi, Bloomington
Texarcana, St. Louis, Roanoke
Charlotte, Grand Rapids, Glen Rock
Black Rock, Little Rock, Colorado
Tinnesay, Tennessee, Toledo
Spirit Lake, Grand Lake, Devil's Lake
Crater Lake, for Pete's sake
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere
Faster still, really, alright
Okay I mean, we're doing alright
We've gotten through like forty
Oh it's Randy's fault, it's Randy's fault
That's fine, blame it on Randy, Mike
That's- You know what, if we're gonna go faster
Mike, why don't you come up here and join me on this next one
What do you guys think?
Oh well okay, if you say so
He wasn't going to but you cheered
I mean you wrote all the lyrics, you remember these, right?
Uh, kinda
Alright well, we'll see, watch me for the changes
Okay
Do you wanna, where do you wanna start?
Why don't we start at Louisville?
Louis-
Louisville, Louisville, let's start at Louisville
Louisville, am I saying it right
Okay, Louisville
Okay, alright, count us off
Here we go
One, two, three
Louisville, Nashville, Knoxville
Appleton, Uncasville, Jacksonville
Evansville, Wilmington, Vegas, Riverside
Tucson, Portsmouth, Pershey
Irie, St. Cloud, Downtown
Idaho, Montreal, Argentina
Diamondtina, Pasadina, Catalina
See what I mean, sir
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Travel, I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere
Two, three, four
That's, that's a pretty quick tempo
Alright, alright, alright
It's outta control
You know what, let's make it exciting
Let's get another guy up here to sing a trio
Ooh, yeah, let's see who wants to do it, anybody
I mean if I'm going down, you're going down
Anyone, anyone
Let's bring somebody else up here, maybe one of the tenors
What do you think?
Maybe one of the back tenor guys
Any tenors, anybody know it
Me, me, me, me, me
Any, any, oh wait, Tyler's raising his hand
Alright Tyler come on
Do you have confidence in him?
Alright, Tyler's coming down
Alright, yeah
Tyler Tripp
Love to
Are you ready for this?
I'm ready
It's moving pretty fast back there
I know
Alright, we'll do it up, we'll do it up the octave for you
Is that good
Sure
Alright
Sure
Where do you wanna start guys?
Where we all been?
You know what
Let's go someplace where that beard would fit in just fine
Portland, Oregon, right?
Ooh yeah, let's do it
Probably about thirty degrees cooler there right now
Might be
Alright Mike, count us off when you're ready
You ready
Ready

Portland, Seattle, San Fran, LA
Honolulu, Maui, Mesa
Fort Wayne, Rockford, Macon
Durham and Detroit
Cheska, Nebraska, Atlanta

And Cincinnati, what a pity
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
Crossed the deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Travel, I've had my share, man
Go someplace you haven't been
I've been everywhere
