Trembling hands, she opens up her magic jar
Heading West in her mind
Things are crystal clear from afar
She's free to go, set to roam the wilds.
Rise up, pack up, she's longing for more
For endless unknown streets
Her suitcase awaits on the floor
Far more worn out than her bedsheets
She's ready
She wants to go everywhere
She wants to see everything
But as soon as she's gone she misses home
She's a homesick, homesick drifter
Homesick drifter
Chasing dreams over hill and dale
She's seen and tasted all
So she'll stay just one more day
Now she's ready to sail back home
Yes, she's ready
She wants to go everywhere
She wants to see everything
But as soon as she's gone she misses home
She's a homesick, homesick drifter
Homesick drifter
On her wishlist there were
Rocky Mountains, California
On her wishlist there were
Northern lights
And waterfalls
On her wishlist now there's also her home
She wants to go everywhere
She wants to see everything
But as soon as she's gone she misses home
She's a homesick, homesick drifter
Homesick drifter
Homesick drifter
Homesick drifter
Homesick drifter
