Lyrics:
A modern-day warriorMean mean stride,Today's Tom SawyerMean mean pride.Though his mind is not for rentDon't put him down as arrogantHis reserve, a quiet defenseRiding out the day's eventsThe riverWhat you say about his companyIs what you say about societyCatch the mist, catch the mythCatch the mystery, catch the driftThe world is, the world isLove and life are deepMaybe as his skies are wideToday's Tom SawyerHe gets high on youAnd the space he invadesHe gets by on youNo his mind is not for rentTo any god or governmentAlways hopeful, yet discontentHe knows changes aren't permanentBut change isWhat you say about his companyIs what you say about societyCatch the witness, catch the witCatch the spirit, catch the spitThe world is, the world isLove and life are deepMaybe as his eyes are wideExit the warriorToday's Tom SawyerHe gets high on youAnd the energy you tradeHe gets right on to the friction of the day
