Morning comes and morning goes
   Now it's me against the sun
   The day goes by and darkness grows
   And it's over before it's done
  
   Well I know it'll be alright if I just get on the road
   If I run I can free my worried mind
   Yeah I know on the day I die I will lose my heavy load
   But I wouldn't want to leave you behind
  
   All my time keeps creeping on
   Now I've grown into a man
   But Mr. Child still wants to run
   From the cradle to the van
  
   Keep thinking it'll be alright if I just get on the road
   If I run I can free my worried mind
   Keep thinking of the day I die when I lose my heavy load
   But I wouldn't want to leave you behind.
