A Country of My Own

A Country Of My Own - Thad Cockrell

I've been searching for a country of my own

When I see her face I know I'll finally be home

Full of mystery and kept surprises

A vast expanse where a rich man pays

But to me she sympathizes

I'm searching for a country of my own

I've been searching for a place where I might stand

And I've been looking for that promised land

And I've been shouting from this mountain top but the frequencies are jammed

I'm just searching for a place where I might stand

When I'm asked about the situation

Of where it is I've been and where I'm bound

Well I've got no home

I've got no home

But I've got a destination

I've been searching for a country of my own

I've been looking for a place that I'll never feel alone

Every day is met with new horizons

City where you meet no strangers is a place you need no home

I'm just searching for a country of my own

When I'm asked about the situation

Of where it is I've been and where I'm bound

Well I've got no home

I've got no home

I've got no home

But I've got a destination
