Driving across the country
Sitting alone in the back seat
My forehead against the window
The powerlines swoop from
Pole to pole
Up and down
Pole to pole to pole
These fields go on forever
Nothing to look at but the billboards
We pass a line of trailers
Their wheels go spinning
Round and round
Silver
Round and round and round
(chorus)
Are we there yet, are we there yet?
When will we be there?
Are we there yet, are we there yet?
When will we be there?
Are we there yet?
No
It’s a long way to go
Are we there yet, are we there yet?
When will we be there?
We left our house this morning
We stopped and I had pancakes
My parents drink their coffee
The road ahead is disappearing
In the heat
Shining like a lake
(chorus)
The sun is going down
My eyes are tired and drowsy
I lean against my jacket
The radio goes on and on
Talking
On and on and on
(chorus)
