Went to the desert on a mission To have a vision or write a song I left real early, I left my cell phone I took the Prius, it gets good mileage Something's gonna happen To change my world I'm on the highway I pa** the windmills, I pa** the outlet stores Soon I'll find the sacred places I've been searching for Wild horses, hawks circling Gram Parsons, inspiration Big cactus, coyotes Something's gonna happen To change my world When I got there to the motel It was different than on the website It was crowded, mostly seniors There was a bar band playing Bad, Bad Leroy Brown So I went hiking, it was so barren And it got too hot, so I turned around
(Ooh) Went to the main drag I saw the statue of Sonny Bono And he was smiling Something's gonna happen To change my world Wild horses, hawks circling Gram Parsons, inspiration Big cactus, coyotes Something's gonna happen To change my world Back on the highway, wave to the windmills The setting sun in my eyes drive to the ocean That's where we come from I'll throw my troubles to the rising tide Something's gonna happen to change my world Seahorses, sharks circling Brian Wilson, inspiration Smart dolphins waves crashing Something's gonna happen I said something's gonna happen (Ooh) I said something's gonna happen To change my world
