All the Way
By Lisa Noe

You once had me clear
I was with you dear
I followed you around
I worshiped your ground

Then I didn’t know
It was time for me to go
I wanted to break free
But this you didn’t see

You chased me where I went
I never gave you a hint
Where I might go
You followed my flow

Mississippi bound
But there I was found
I ran so far away
I left you that day

Off to the shore
Where I will explore
Things I’ve never seen
It’s my fondest dream

But you wanted me to go
To the country of Mexico
I didn’t want to leave the USA
For here I shall always stay

My land that I love
Come push or shove
I’m leaving you now
I’ve taken a final bow.
