Words & Music by Julie Gibb (SOCAN/BMI)

Get the Show on the Road

The summer sun burned high and strong

When she stopped to say goodbye

A suitcase in her left hand and a road map in her right

She said, "Destiny is calling me outside these city lines

The world's a rollercoaster and I'm ready for a ride

​

Too much history can be risky when you've danced to your own drum

They only see the fool I was and not what I could become

Futility is lingering with all familiar things

My roots will always be here, but I can't neglect my wings

​

So let's go, let's go, get the show on the road

No time left to waste anymore

When you're sitting at the bottom and you've only got one way that you can go

Trust yourself, pack your things, get the show on the road

​

She said it's time to leave all those fair weather friends behind

They'll kick you when you're on the ground and they'll kiss you when you're high

No point in taking it to heart, 'cause everything will pass

I know the one who's got my back is in the looking glass

​

So let's go, let's go, get the show on the road

No time left to waste anymore (it's time to go, it's time to go)

When you're sitting at the bottom and you've only got one way that you can go

Trust yourself, pack your things, get the show on the road.
