Lyrics

I'm only three short steps away
From being gone from here forever
This ol' greyhound and me
We've got a lot in common
There's a world I want to see
Why should I wait until tomorrow
Gimme one ticket please
One way to El Dorado

Big ol’ sun sure looks fine
I'm all alone and I don't mind
I've got an eyeful of sky
I've got a life of freedom
So when I hear that diesel roar
I'll have no need for all this sorrow
I'll sit right here if you please
I'm off to El Dorado

Chorus:
So we'll see how far she rolls
An' I don't know where this will lead
But ya gotta be bold
If you wanna be free
And tho' my woes
They wend and wind
I'm nowhere near the end of the line
All the road's lined with gold
And the sky is the limit

For now I'll take it as she goes
And free my mind of fear and worry
This ol' driver and me
We're not in any hurry
With just three less stops to make
Two bits will get me thru tomorrow
I'll go wherever I please
I'm off to El Dorado

(chorus)

I'm only three short steps away
From being gone from here forever
This ol' greyhound and me
We got a lot in common
There's a world I want to see
Why should I wait until tomorrow
I'll go wherever I please
I'm off to El Dorado
