[Verse 1]
I was sitting on a rainbow
Waiting for a train
Or perhaps a big old airplane
Or a fancy limousine

[Chorus]
And I have to be getting somewhere
There’s so much to see
But Lord, won’t you watch over me

[Verse 2]
I was speaking French to strangers
In the Vegas afterglow
All coc’ed up, my mind all stuffed
But I still enjoyed the show

[Chorus]
And I have to be getting somewhere
There’s so much to see
But Lord, won’t you watch over me

[Bridge]
And I’ll grasp the land
In my big hungry hands
But even then I can’t see
And I’d get mad
But it is as it stands
So why let it bother me
[Verse 3]
I was looking for a scapegoat
Traveling town to town
Looking for that special man
To help me settle down

[Chorus]
And I have to be getting somewhere
There’s so much to see
But Lord, won’t you watch over me
I said my Lord, won’t you watch over me
I said my Lord, won’t you watch over me
