up around the bend
(Text & musik: J. Fogerty)



There's a place up ahead and I'm goin'
just as fast as my feet can fly
Come away, come away if you're goin',
leave the sinkin' ship behind.

CHORUS:

Come on the risin' wind,
we're goin' up around the bend.

Ooh!

Bring a song and a smile for the banjo,
better get while the gettin's good,
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway
where the neons turn to wood.

CHORUS

Oooh!

You can ponder perpetual motion,
fix your mind on a crystal day,
Always time for a good conversation,
there's an ear for what you say.

CHORUS

Yeah!

Oooh!

Catch a ride to the end of the highway
and we'll meet by the big red tree,
There's a place up ahead and I'm goin',
come along, come along with me.

CHORUS

Yeah!

Do do doo do...
