Is it, is it really you?

Floyd!

Is it, is it really happenin'?

Yes!

I declare, I declare, I declare

I never saw such beauty as my sister girl

No sir!

Can it, can it really be true?

Yes sir!

Like a, like a miracle!

Finally on my feet again

Circlin', circlin', circlin' around

You got the luck

We both got the luck

Us two, we got it

Right here!

Circlin' (I got ya)

Circlin' (Ah)

Welcome home

I done missed you, Nell

Worried about you at the asylum

But you were right there besidе me, Floyd

Just like I been with you

Some pеople go place to place

Some people go underground

Some gotta go crazy like

I just journey in

And that is where I've been

We all go somewhere

And that's how we get along

If folks just don't understand it

Why, that ain't nothin' wrong

You and me, we follow a sound

That is whistlin' around in the air

Since Mama's gone, we heard it callin'

And it's kind of restful

When you see that you're not alone

We're finally together

Here in the unknown

We're always wanderin' and wantin' to know

Why we are what we are

We always have the whistlin' question

And there ain't an answer but only the askin' forever

Ah-oogah, ah-oogah!

Homer!

Time to go

Where're we goin'?

Y'all hop in my shiny automobile

Hot damn, she's a beauty-beaut

'Cause you gotta be there for your opening day

What openin' day?

We moved the rocks

We did?

And made some trails

And smoothed the floors

And built the stairs

We set up some big signs out on the road

There's a ticket office

And a curio shop

And refreshment stand, open seven days a week

At the Great Sand Cave!

The Great Sand Cave!
