Grace Petrie - Great Central Way lyrics

We took the 101 out of Oregon
In the shadow of the redwoods
Down the Golden State took the coast all day
To San Francisco bay
And didn't stop until we hit the Golden Gate

Oh, I have lived lives beyond my years
Seen open roads with no end in sight
But my rambling heart won't be unchained
From where it's anchor lies

And when the Foxes score i hear the roar
From my front door and when the River Soar
Bears me back to shore
Then I will run no more

I've seen the oceans meet
From fifty thousand feet
I've watched the Black Forest
Shiver 'neath electric storms
I've seen the Rockies rise
Up into clear blue skies
And carved foundations just three miles
From where I'm born

Oh, I have lived lives beyond my years
Seen open roads with no end in sight
But my rambling heart won't be unchained
From where it's anchor lies

And when the Foxes score i hear the roar
From my front door and when the River Soar
Bears me back to shore
Then I will run no more i will run no more

Oh, I have lived lives beyond my years
Seen open roads with no end in sight
But my rambling heart it won't be unchained
From where it's anchor lies

And when the Foxes score i hear the roar
From my front door and when the River Soar
Bears me back to shore
Then I will run no more i will run no more

And when the Foxes score i hear the roar
From my front door and when the River Soar
Bears me back to shore
And when the River Soar
Washes me clean and pure
And when the River Soar
Bears me back to shore i will run no more
