Detroit, L.A., Boston, San Francisco
First time over the ocean on a plane
A billion stars below me lay, circle slowly JFK
So much there to see inside of a week
They came looking for something new
Try to press it flat inside of a few days
Old Dominion Saturday, Arlington's eternal flame
Sunday tour Niagara Falls in the mist
Monday I'll be heading south, New Orleans, the Cajun sound
Tuesday's Tupelo, Elvis's home
They came looking for something new
Try to press it flat inside of a few days
What a wonderful stay
On a mule, Grand Canyon ride on Wednesday
I hope to get to Denver in a day
Friday ride to Washington in the glacial mountain sun
Hop a train for Canada to the east
They came looking for something new
Try to press it flat inside of a few days
What a wonderful stay
