I'd set out on 15 oceans
I know there aint that many on earth
just goes to show you how far I'd go dear
just goes to show me what you're worth

There was a time when I roamed around
I'd say my rambling days are done
I'd been chasing black & white rainbows
come to find there aint a one

I'd been sleeping, I'd been biding
I was told to wait my turn
when I was young I flew my airplane,
played with matches, crashed & burned

I was told to pull my punches
still I'd been taking them on the chin
for all the time I spent on my backside
who'd have thought I'd ever win
