Thad Cockrell
A Country of My Own
I've been searching for a country of my own
When I see her face, I know I'll finally be home
Full of mystery and kept surprises
A vast expanse where a rich man pays
But to me she sympathizes
I'm searching for a country of my own

I've been searching for a place where I might stand
And I've been looking for that promised land
And I've been shouting from this mountain top but the frequencies are jammed
I'm just searching for a place where I might stand

When I'm asked about the situation
Of where it is I've been and where I'm bound
Well, I've got no home
I've got no home
But I've got a destination

I've been searching for a country of my own
I've been looking for a place that I'll never feel alone
Every day is met with new horizons
City where you meet no strangers is a place you need no home
I'm just searching for a country of my own

When I'm asked about the situation
Of where it is I've been and where I'm bound
Well, I've got no home
I've got no home
I've got no home
But I've got a destination
