Windy trail on a mountain morning
Dusty shoes greet the day
Country boy leavin the place he was born in
To find a better way
A man looks out and sees the city
That he once called his own home
Got to go and find a place where he can be alone

(Chorus)
West is the way
North is the thunder
East is what we're runnin from
South is the sea where we'd go under
West is the one
A burnt-out farm, a worthless claim
A wagon moves away
Joins a train down on the plain
Ramblin though the day
They don't stop for no one
Cause all they had is gone
A long and never ending dream
Keeps them goin on
They don't stop for no one
Cause all they had is gone
A long and never ending dream
Keeps them goin on

Chorus

Look out where the sun is setting
Where hills roll like the sea
People after new beginnings
Searchin patiently
Look out where the sun is setting
Where hills roll like the sea
People after new beginnings
Searchin patiently
Chorus three times
