UP AROUND THE BEND 
(John C. Fogerty)
Creedence Clearwater Revival - 1970


There's a place up ahead and I'm going just as fast as my feet can fly
Come away, come away if you're going, leave the sinking ship behind. 

CHORUS:
Come on the rising wind, we're going up around the bend. 

Ooh!
Bring a song and a smile for the banjo, better get while the getting is good,
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway where the neons turn to wood. 

CHORUS 

Ooh!
You can ponder perpetual motion, fix your mind on a crystal day,
Always time for a good conversation, there's an ear for what you say. 

CHORUS
Yeah! 

Ooh!
Catch a ride to the end of the highway and we'll meet by the big red tree,
There's a place up ahead and I'm going, come along, come along with me. 

CHORUS 

Yeah!
Do, do, doo, do...
