Lyrics

Sometimes I get an itch to go off wanderin'
I keep scratching but it never lets me be
It doesn't have to be some far-off distant island
Any old backroad is fine by me
I still feel the urge to follow
I still hear that ancient call to roam
When I'm done, I'll circle back around
And let some backroad lead me home
It doesn't take that much to make me happy
A new song on the wind calling my name
The scent of truth and I can't help but follow
I chase it down through the hills in the pouring rain
I still feel the urge to follow
I still hear that ancient call to roam
When I'm done, I'll circle back around
And let some backroad lead me home
Sometimes I think I just like to go off
So I can find my way back home again
And see my porch light burning brightly
A lighthouse reaching out to some old friend
Sayin' Come on in, tell me where've ya been
So if you see me out there on some county backroad
Or having breakfast at some Driftless town café
It's only me drinking in the landscape
I fill my cup, then I'll be on my way
I still feel the urge to follow
I still hear that ancient call to roam
When I'm done, I'll circle back around
And let some backroad lead me home
