I've been everywhere -- Johnny Cash

~firefliesblueskies

I was totin’ my pack along the dusty Winnemucca road

When along came a semi with a high an’ canvas covered load

“If you’re goin’ to Winnemucca, Mack, with me you can ride”

And so I climbed into the 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, I’ve traveled every road in this here land”

I’ve been everywhere, man

I’ve been everywhere, man

Crossed the desert’s bare, man

I’ve breathed the mountain air, man

Of travel I’ve a’had my share, man

I’ve been everywhere

I’ve been to Reno, Chicago, Fargo, Minnesota

Buffalo, Toronto, Winslow, Sarasota

Wichita, Tulsa, Ottawa, Oklahoma

Tampa, Panama, Mattawa, La Paloma

Bangor, Baltimore, Salvador, Amarillo

Tocopilla, Barranquilla, and Padilla, I’m a killer

I’ve been everywhere, man

I’ve been everywhere, man

Crossed the desert’s bare, man

I’ve breathed the mountain air, man

Of travel I’ve a’had my share, man

I’ve been everywhere

I’ve been everywhere, man

I’ve been everywhere, man

Crossed the desert’s bare, man
