Detroit, L.A., Boston, San Francisco,
first time o’er the ocean on a plane a billion stars below me lay,
circle slowly JFK,
so much there to see inside of a week they came looking for something new
try to press it flat inside of a few days Old Dominion Saturday,
Arlington’s eternal flame Sunday tour Niagara Falls in the mist.
Monday I’ll be heading south New Orleans the Cajun sound
Tuesday’s Tupelo Elvis’s home . . .
try to press it flat inside of a few days what a wonderful stay,
on a mule Grand Canyon ride on Wednesday,
hope to get to Denver in a day Friday ride to Washington,
in the glacial mountain sun hop a train for Canada
to the east they came looking for something new
try to press it flat inside of a few days what a wonderful stay
