Just like the brush in the painters hand we have no idea where we are.

Lynyrd Skynyrd - All I Can Do Is Write About It.

Well this life that I've lead has took me everywhere 
There ain't no place I ain't never gone 
But its kind of like the saying that you heard so many times 
Well there just ain't no plae like home 
Did you ever see a she-gator protect her young 
Or a fish in a river swimming free 
Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina 
Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennessee 
And Lord I can't make any changes 
All I can do is write 'em in a song 
I can see the concrete slowly creepin' 
Lord take me and mine before that comes 

Do you like to see a mountain stream a-flowin' 
Do you like to see a youngun with his dog 
Did you ever stop to think about, well, the air your breathin' 
Well you better listen to my song 
And Lord I can't make any changes 
All I can do is write 'em in a song 
I can see the concrete slowly creepin' 
Lord take me and mine before that comes 

I'm not tryin' to put down no big cities 
But the things they write about us is just a bore 
Well you can take a boy out of ol' Dixieland 
But you'll never take ol' Dixie from a boy 
And Lord I can't make any changes 
All I can do is write 'em in a song 
I can see the concrete slowly creepin' 
Lord take me and mine before that comes 
'Cause I can see the concrete slowly creepin' 
Lord take me and mine before that comes
