Out There on the Road (feat. Big Fish Original Broadway Cast)

You can pine your life away
 Wishin' things were better
 Waitin' here for judgment day
 While knittin' you a sweater
 But I believe that kind of life
 Won't set your spirit free
 So my friend,
 One small suggestion
 Where you oughtta be'
 You can take a journey
 Through this country's
 Flesh and blood
 On a ride past countryside
 And Mississippi mud
 Hit the street with two big feet
 To bear your heavy load
 And live life out there on the road
 Anyone you wanna be
 And anything you say
 Come tomorrow you'll be free
 Of who you are today
 Action and adventure
 When we change our fixed abode
 Go live life out there on the road
 Wouldn't you rather be
 Like royalty
 Respected like a king
 Where it's all civilized
 You'll be surprised
 The song you'll hear 'em sing
 People'll greet you there
 Some wanna share
 Enthusiastic news
 And all you need is guaranteed
 With one big pair of shoes
 One big pair of shoes!
 Hey what's your name, giant?
 Karl.
 Listen, Karl. The world is huge!
 Don't you wanna
 Step outside
 Look around
 See what's waiting there!
 We were born to
 Wake each morn
 Some place we've never been
 Checkin' out the locals
 As they watch us checkin' in
 Every new encounter
 In another new zip code
 We'll find it out there
 That's him, right there!
 Wait! He's not a monster
 He's a thinker
 He's a whiz
 This boy isn't half so bad
 As you all think he is
 I've been so inspired
 I've decided we're a pair!
 We're heading out there
 On the road
 You're leaving now?!
 Edward Bloom
 Don't tell me that you're
 Leaving us for good
 Jenny, yes I'm leaving
 But 'for good' I never could
 I'll be back some day
 And I'll be waiting while
 You're gone
 'Til then,
 Be happy on the road
 C'mon Karl! Let's show 'em our traveling step!
 Every road trip needs a traveling step.
 Edward Bloom, take with you this Key to the City,
 and know our doors will always be open to you
 Suddenly, I'm the king
 Who holds the key
 But everybody secretly
 Is dying to be
 More and more
 Like who'
 Like you!
 Like you!
 I can see America
 Dependable and true
 Open sky and passerby
 Congratulating you
 Find the open highway
 And you've hit
 The mother lode
 Go crazy
 Out there on the
 Happy!
 Out there on the
 Finally out there
 Promise you'll return to us!
 On the road!
 On the road!!
