Lyrics
I'm on the road, dog Got my back pack, maps and my road dogs If you could see what we see You would want to go where we're going just to be where we'll be In the presence of more than a baby boy The Lord who can save you and save me, or Maybe if it's still not clear Let wise men open your eyes and take you there The sky was clear that night, right? Cold, crisp air, yeah stars shining bright Remember that y'all? But there was that one star that was shining brighter than them all I remember, wasn't it December? That's the wrong date But it did put an end to our long wait 'Cause we were getting restless while we waited For a special child with a mom highly favored No more singing the blues We need the sky signify the coming of the King of the Jews We'd studied the script, next step was to study the trip Packed up, we were ready to dip Ready to roll Wasn't even sweatin' the cold We were convinced of His Hotness, ready the go Don't forget the planks to anchor the tent And with the gold, grab myrrh and some frankincense I'm on the road, dog Got my back pack, maps and my road dogs If you could see what we see You would want to go where we're going just to be where we'll be In the presence of more than a baby boy The Lord who can save you and save me, or Maybe if it's still not clear Let wise men open your eyes and take you there It's been a minute but we're still steppin' Still trekkin' Can't wait to put our eyes on what our heart's expectin' It's on I can't wait to find the palace Recline in the palace, sit back and drink wine from the chalice You know they from out of town, right? They probably down town in the Crown Plaza, not in Crown Heights He probably got a long line waiting to see Him I bet you even King Herod's waiting to see Him I should give him a call, I know he can get me in And if he hook it up we all - get in free Then I called Herod, he don't know where he at But he said if we find Him we should call him right back I don't trust that dude, I ain't callin' him back Chill wit all that, you can see we're on the right track What makes you say that? 'Cause the star's right there Well if the star's right there then we must be here Let's go I'm on the road, dog Got my back pack, maps and my road dogs If you could see what we see You would want to go where we're going just to be where we'll be In the presence of more than a baby boy The Lord who can save you and save me, or Maybe if it's still not clear Let wise men open your eyes and take you there Fading in the distance The place where all of us faced a twist deeper than the sixth sense It wasn't what I expected to see Someone as great as Him living lesser than me In fact we were blown away By a King with no bling, just a throne of hay Even shepherds had heard of Him Somehow they got word of Him Wise men, herdsmen, all of us worshipin' Anybody notice how the sheep and cows Seem to peek and bow (down) to the sleeping child? We went home a different way, not just geographically, but he impacted me Never forget the day, we got to sit back And see God's presence, a present, gift wrapped And I hope you get that 'Cause when you got Jesus you don't have to wonder where the gift's at I'm on the road, dog Got my back pack, maps and my road dogs If you could see what we see You would want to go where we're going just to be where we'll be In the presence of more than a baby boy The Lord who can save you and save me, or Maybe if it's still not clear Let wise men open your eyes and take you there I'm on the road, dog Got my back pack, maps and my road dogs If you could see what we see You would want to go where we're going just to be where we'll be In the presence of more than a baby boy The Lord who can save you and save me, or Maybe if it's still not clear Let wise men open your eyes and take you there
