Way down the road there was a man
His passion was to paint the silly pictures in his head
He stood tall and proud when he got in it
And if someone didn't like him, he didn't care, no, he kept on singin'

Hot way to go, almost electric
No more castles made of sand, he wouldn't buy what they were selling
He stood tall, though they still called him eccentric
Didn't listen to the music, but the band, no, they kept on playin'

When he came across that hill
When he came across that land
He saw something in the sky
He just could not understand
So he held his head up high
When he gazed upon the clouds
And he laughed that pigs might fly
Before he'll change his ways around
Before he'll change his ways around

"Well get back, Jack!"
At least that's what they used to tell him
Sit your ass back down, before this resort's to more than yelling
You get drunk alone when no one's watching
And until you see the bottom, you're the man for one more moment, oh

When he came across that hill, when he came across that land
He saw something in the sky that he just could not understand
So he held his head up when he gazed upon the clouds
And he laughed that pigs might fly before we'll change his ways around
Before we'll change his ways around

He never really thought he'd need somebody to love, to love, to love
He never really thought he'd choose the money above, above, above

When he came across that hill
When he came across that land
He saw something in the sky
He just could not understand
So he held his head up high
When he gazed upon the clouds
And he laughed that pigs might fly
Before he'll change his ways around
Before he'll change his ways around
Before he'll change his ways around
Oh, oh, oh
Before he'll change his ways around
Before he'll change his ways around
