COUNT ME IN
©2017 music and words by John R. Black, ℗42nd Street Music Seattle
It’s a long, long road
It’s a long, long highway
Tell me where you're headin’
are you gonna take me?
How many miles are we gonna travel?
How many people are we gonna see?
I’ve been waiting for the journey
Waiting patiently
(Chorus:)
Count me in, I’ll stick by you
Count me in, to the end
If the road is rocky
lean on me, my friend
Count me in, I’ll stay with you
Count me in, by your side
If the road gets narrow
and hope is hard to find
Count me in
I’ve been counting down the days
Till I’m gonna be free
I’m running out of highway
and running out of dreams
How many miles are we gonna travel?
How many miles before we find the gold?
Didn’t find it on this road
Where my dreams got sold
(Chorus)
You don’t know my pain and sorrow
You don’t know I dread tomorrow
Are you sure we’ll make this journey
Lookin’ for the gold
It’s for sure I want this journey
Need a detour off this highway
Where my dreams got sold
(Chorus)
