Southern Cross

[00:11.38] There's a lotta folks down at the island
[00:13.75] That follow that astrology
[00:16.83] Some got a chart of the heavens
[00:20.57] And some got a fancy degree
[00:23.77] But me I got a pick-up
[00:27.35] And I drive it like a Fourth of July
[00:30.56] And that's where I seen the vision
[00:34.06] When it fell right out of the sky
[00:37.75] It said
[00:39.86] Follow, follow the southern cross
[00:41.62] Leave your luck in Mexico
[00:44.69] There ain't no way to get lost
[00:47.63] Cause there ain't no place to go
[00:52.15] So I bought me a ticket to Texas
[00:54.64] And I hopped on a plane to Peru
[00:57.88] I met a little lady from Chile
[01:01.53] And she fed me a tropical root
[01:05.02] Now I'm down in Tierra del Fuego
[01:07.94] And nothin' around me is right
[01:11.20] I think I got a case of lumbago
[01:14.98] But it's better than the northern lights
[01:18.58] I gotta
[01:20.32] Follow, follow the southern cross
[01:22.23] Leave your luck in Mexico
[01:25.12] There ain't no way to get lost
[01:28.21] Cause there ain't no place to go
[01:32.99] (HORN SOLO)
[02:00.41] So I paddled out to Easter Island
[02:03.43] About as fast as I could go
[02:06.57] I saw and albatross on the horizon
[02:09.65] And the stone heads all in a row
[02:13.42] I found the secret of navigation
[02:16.72] And the mystery of the Milky Way
[02:20.08] Now I'm livin' in the constellations
[02:23.69] Tell me what more I can say
[02:27.10] You gotta
[02:28.73] Follow, follow the southern cross
[02:30.86] And leave your luck in Mexico
[02:34.17] There ain't no way to get lost
[02:37.00] Cause there ain't no place to go
[02:42.72] Whoa!
