Take off! To the Great White North!
Take off! It's a beauty way to go.
Take off! To the Great White North!
Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooooo!
Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooooo!
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
It's a shame
The way you mess around with your man
It's a shame the way you hurt me
It's a shame
The way you mess around with your man
I'm sitting all alone by the telephone
Waiting for your call, when you don't call at all
You know, it's been a long, long road
Since I packed up and left on my own
And I carry a heavy load
Just trying get back to her heart
I sure ain't got no home
I seem to find love where I ramble
And when it's time to go
I hear that voice again
Sayin' find your way back
Find your way back to her heart
Sunshine came softly through my a-window today
Could've tripped out easy a-but I've a-changed my ways
It'll take time, I know it but in a while
You're gonna be mine, I know it, we'll do it in style
'Cause I made my mind up you're going to be mine
What's your name? (What's your name?)
Who's your daddy? (Who's your daddy?)
(Is he rich) Is he rich like me?
Has he taken (has he taken)
Any time (any time)
(To show) To show you what you need to live?
Tell it to me slowly, tell you what
I really want to know
It's the time of the season for loving
It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch
And it's knowing I'm not shackled
By forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line
That keeps you in the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind
Love is waiting there in my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air in my beautiful balloon
If you'll hold my hand we'll chase your dream across the sky
For we can, fly we can fly
Up, up and away
My beautiful, my beautiful balloon
Balloon
Up, up, and away
