Well, I went up to the city
Tried to find my way around there
I went up to the city
Couldn't say just what I found there
But I found what I found
Then I left there to find my own way

Well, I went out to the country
Tried to find some peace of mind there
I went out to the country
Tried to see what I could find there
Well, I found what I found
Then I left there to find my own way

Ah there's a road that's paved with comfort
Well worn like old blue jeans
And you can never lose your way there
But you can forget what the journey means

Well, I went down to the ocean
Watched a seagull flyin' by there
When I went down to the ocean
Saw the water touch the sky there
And I found what I found
Then I left there to find my own way

Ah there's a road that's paved with comfort
Well worn like old blue jeans
And you can never lose your way there
But you can forget what the journey means

Well, I went back to my home town
Saw the start of who I am there
Yes I went back to my home town
Found the heart of what I am there
But since I found what I found
Mama dear, you know I gotta leave here to find my own way
