Intro :

when trav eling abroad in the continent al style

it's my belief one must attempt to b e discreet

and subse quently bear in m ind your transient posi tion

allows you a perspective that's unique

and though you'll find y our itinerary 's a blessing and a curse

your wand erlust won't let you settle down

and you'll wonder how you ever fatho med that you'd be content

to stay within the city limits of a small mi dwestern town

most vagabonds i knowed don't ever want to fin d the culprit

that remains the object of their l ong relentless qu est

the obsess ion's in the chasi ng and not the apprehending

the pursuit you see and never the arrest

without fear of contradiction "bon voyage" is alw ays hollered

in conjunc tion with a handke rchief from shore

b y a girl that drives a rambler and furthermore

is o verly concerne d that she won't see him anymore

planes and trains and boats and buses

characterist ically evok e a common attitude o f blue

un less you hav e a suit case an d a ticket and a passport

and the cargo that they're carrying i s you

a foreign affair jux tapose d with a statesid e

and domesti cally approved romantic fancy

is myste riously att ractive due to cir cumstances knowing

it will on ly be parlayed into a memor y
