I have a task which requires me to choose Two texts which relate to physical journeys. I have chosen

- Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and
- Road Trippin' By the Red Hot chili Peppers

what do you think? any suggestions?

Thankyou, Jazz

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Road trippin' with my two favorite allies
Fully loaded we got snacks and supplies
It's time to leave this town
It's time to steal away
Let's go get lost
Anywhere in the U.S.A.

Let's go get lost
Let's go get lost


Blue you sit so pretty
West of the one
Sparkles light with yellow icing
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun

These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for

So much as come before those battles lost and
won
This life is shining more forever in the sun
Now let us check our heads
And let us check the surf
Staying high and dry's
More trouble than it's worth
In the sun

Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun

These Smiling eyes are just a mirror for

In Big Sur we take some time to linger on
We three hunky dory's got our snakefinger on
Now let us drink the stars
It's time to steal away
Let's go get lost
Right here in the U.S.A


These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
Your smiling eyes are just a mirror for

Jazz, I think this one might fit the assignment better:

Travelin' Man
Words and music by bob seger


Up with the sun, gone with the wind,
She always said I was lazy.
Leavin’ my home, leavin’ my friends,
Runnin’ when things get too crazy.
Out on thr road, out ’neath the stars,
Feelin’ the breeze, passin’ the cars.

Women have come, women have gone,
Everyone tryin’ to cage me.
Some were so sweet, I barely got free,
Others, they only enraged me.
Sometimes at night, I see their faces,
I feel the traces they left on my soul.
Those are the memories that made me a wealthy soul.


Travelin’ man, love when I can,
Turn loose my hand ’cause I’m goin’.
Travelin’ man, catch if you can,
But sooner or later I’m goin’.
Travelin’ man ... travelin’ man, yes I am.
Sometimes at night, I see their faces,
I feel the traces they left on my soul.

These are the memories that made me a wealthy soul.
These are the memories that made me a wealthy soul.

Here's another song that might fit the assignment:

Travelin' Man
Doobie Brothers
(Tom Johnston)

The sun brings up another day
Near the little fishin' town
The nets are hung out in the wind
The sails are down
A seagull flies above my head
Spinning slowly towards the sea
He seems so free, and just like me
He rides the wind

I'm a travelin' man
Nothin' left behind me but the road
I'm a travelin' man
Won't you share the load

Lonesome shepherd in the field ahead
Moonlight flows across the grass
The rocky hills catch the light above
Their shadows cast
Lonely by the day
Drifting late at night
The wind is creepin' through my ragged coat
What a life

I'm a travelin' man
Nothin' left behind me but the road
I'm a travelin' man
Won't you share the load
