"Vacation (In My Mind)" lyrics - TOM COCHRANE

Taking a vacation
Don't know what I'll find
Taking a vacation in my mind

Taking a vacation
Don't know what I'm gonna find there
Stuck some clothes in a sack
I'm slipping out the back door

Sit by the range
See the splendors of the Bronze Age
I'll be wild eyed and waiting
They got me there and well placed

Where are you
Where you are I will be
I am on a vacation
Only in my mind
Vacation

Taking a vacation
Don't know what I'll find
I'm taking a vacation
I'm self-hypnotized

Blue man swings to the beat
Over there she's got a weapon
We're going to kick it in the sand
Some guys are selling visas
They're trying to sell tickets to the promised land

People going to get there
I see it in my dreams
Saw people dancing, saw people moving

In the hot summer steam

Where you are
Where you are I will be
I am on vacation
Only in my mind
I can see you from here
I am on vacation
Vacation

Taking a vacation
I don't know what I'll find
I'll be taking a vacation
Don't know what we'll find
We're going to discover America
Take a train to Mecca
We'll be lying on the beach there
The old wise fool and me

Where you are
Where you are I will be
I am on vacation only in my mind
I can see you from here
I am on vacation
Where you are I will be
I can see you from here

Taking a vacation
Don't know what I'll find
We're taking a vacation only in our minds
No traffic and noise here, well a word to the wise
There's splendors of the Bronze Age
That's about my favorite drive
