Walking towards the sun
With no direction home
I can't pick up my feet now
I'm rolling like a stone
Mountains in the distance
And the wind on my trail
I'm dodging dust storms like a bullet
I'm coasting through like an open sail
Monkey see monkey do
I ain't the type to follow you
Need me woman to fill this shoe
I need a ticket to the west
Monkey see monkey do
I ain't the type to follow you
Need me woman to fill this shoe
I need a ticket to the west
Just riders on the storm
Gonna ride this one out
I'm dying to be born
It's been a long time drought
When I reach the coast
Gonna bury my toes in the sand
You can find me composed
You can find me laying like a new man
Monkey see monkey do
I ain't the type to follow you
Need me woman to fill this shoe
I need a ticket to the west
Monkey see monkey do
I ain't the type to follow you
Need me woman to fill this shoe
I need a ticket to the west
Let the air run through your lungs
Let the tears fall onto your tongue
Let your eyes burn in the sun
Live like you're gonna die young
Live like your time has come
Live like you're on the run
Live and love and love to live
Love yourself, make sure to give
Everything you are to what you wanna be
Monkey see monkey do
I ain't the type to follow you
Need me woman to fill this shoe
I need a ticket to the west
Monkey see monkey do
I ain't the type to follow you
Need me woman to fill this shoe
I need a ticket to the west
