(Written by Jason Allen)
I got shot of a bad feeling today
I tripped a hundred thousand miles and lost it on the way
I got feet that are cold and I'm wanting to go
I got nothing here 'cause everything is on the road
And I say "Hey!"
And the road goes on
And the feeling goes on
And life goes on yeah!
Got space and freedom here today
A hundred thousand miles away and still I'm in the race
There's a lot of positivity we can use
A hundred thousand people here and none of them can lose
And it's a long shot, it's the only one
Top slot, doing what it takes to stay
This field of hungry people can't be wrong
Doing what it takes today
And I say "Hey!"
And the road goes on
And the feeling goes on
And life goes on yeah!
I hope to see this energy remain
Made a hundred thousand pounds and threw it all away
I gotta feeling that I really can't miss this time
And I say "Hey!"...
A new sound and the word gets around
That the world keeps spinning and I am here today, oh yeah
One hundred thousand people can't be wrong
Doing what it takes today, yeah yeah yeah
What it takes to stay...
And I say "Hey!"...

bongos, shaker, harmony vocals, lyrics.
"This song was written after myself and Dan Russell decided to split 'Stantonbury Tales' in half. The music was originally captured using my mobile phone - an idea that would've been lost otherwise. The lyrics were half improvised when I was sketching the vocal melody."
