My friends from high schoolMarried their high school boyfriendsMoved into houses in the same ZIP codesWhere their parents liveBut I, I could never followNo I, I could never followI hit the highway in a pink RV with stars on the ceilingLived like a gypsySix strong hands on the steering wheelI've been a long time gone nowMaybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle downBut I've always found my way somehowBy taking the long wayTaking the long way aroundTaking the long wayTaking the long way aroundI met the queen of whateverDrank with the Irish and smoked with the hippiesMoved with the shakersWouldn't kiss all the asses that they told me toNo I, I could never followNo I, I could never followIt's been two long years nowSince the top of the world came crashing downAnd I'm getting' it back on the road nowBut I'm taking the long wayTaking the long way aroundI'm taking the long wayTaking the long way aroundThe longThe long way aroundWell, I fought with a stranger and I met myselfI opened my mouth and I heard myselfIt can get pretty lonely when you show yourselfGuess I could have made it easier on myselfBut I, I could never followNo I, I could never followWell, I never seem to do it like anybody elseMaybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle downIf you ever want to find me I can still be foundTaking the long wayTaking the long way aroundTaking the long wayTaking the long way around
