I've Been Everywhere

[Misty_Morning]

So last week I was listening to The Man in Black and posted the lyrics to the song that I was listening to on the lit radio thread. I highlighted the places I had been to (although there may be more that I can't remember )


So Just fer fun.....here's the post.


Where have you been?

I've Been Everywhere - Johnny Cash

I was toting my pack along the long dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
If your 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 deserts bare, man
I've breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere
