Lyrics:

Well, I've been out of the woods for six days and nights, now
Well, I'm a little hot wired, but I'm feeling alright
I got some money in my pocket and a long, lean ride, yeah
I got to make it down to Galveston by Saturday night, now

Well, I'm a little down under, but I'm feeling O.K.
Got a little lost along the way
I'm just around the corner to the light of day
Well, I'm just around the corner to the light of day, yeah

Been driving five hundred miles, got five hundred to go, yeah
I got rock and roll music on the radio
I got a brother on a rig just off the Gulf Coast
He says the girls down there, well, they're really the most, man

Well, I'm a little down under, but I'm feeling O.K.
I got a little lost along the way
Just around the corner to the light of day, yeah
Just around the corner to the light of day, yeah
I'm just around the corner to the light of day, yeah
Just around the corner to the light of day, yeah

I'm driving 100 miles, 200 miles, 300 miles
Train kept on a-rollin', going 400 miles, 500 miles, 600 miles
Train kept on a-rollin', going 700 miles, 800 miles, 900 miles, 1,000 miles, 2,000 miles, 3,000 miles
I came a long, long way tonight
All the way to Hollywood, California, via Sweden, via Paris, via Italian, via France, via via London, England, via the great state of New Jersey and halfway across the United States

I wanna thank y'all for invitin' me into your living room tonight
I know there's millions of ya out there
I know you're downhearted
I know you're disenchanted
I know you're disillusioned
I know there's 57 channels and nothing on
Just one thing I wanna know tonight
There's just one thing I wanna know
But first I want you to get up off your couch
I want you to put the popcorn down
I want you to come on over to the tv set
I want you to turn it up real loud
I want you to take off all your clothes now
And what I want to know is anybody alive out there?

Well, I got thrown out of work on the Kokomo
Don't ask me what I'm doing, I don't know
I hope he wasn't joking when he wrote me that letter
Things can't get any worse, they gotta get better

I'm a little down under, feeling O.K.
Got a little lost along the way

Just around the corner to the light of day
Just around the corner to the light of day, yeah
Just around the corner to the light of day, yeah
Just around the corner to the light of day, yeah
I'm just around the corner
Just around the corner
Just around the corner
Just around the corner
Just around the corner to the light of day
Just around the corner to the light of day
Just around the corner to the light of day
