Story Behind The Song
This is a recording of my son Mike singing this when he was a child. It is a great, youthful sounding recording. I have an instrumental version recorded also.I will send it to you upon request.

Song Description
Sometimes we just want to get up and go away. We can't help but think that our life will be better somewhere else. And sometimes it is. My son Mike sings this one when he was only 10. The child-like voice adds to the intensity of wanting to move on and Mike does a superb job of capturing the spirit of the song.

Lyrics
ON MY WAY Joe Procopio ASCAP
1. ON MY WAY
I'm leaving and I'm ON MY WAY
ON MY WAY
I'm never coming back to stay
Time is mine now
I'm looking for a brand new day
And I'll be gone tomorrow
You'd better say goodbye today.
2. ON MY WAY
The people here are dead and gray
ON MY WAY
I'm free from all the games they play
Freedom's mine now
I'm so excited I can't wait
And I'll be gone tomorrow
I love it and I'm ON MY WAY.
Bridge:
Crusing, moving, crusing
Down the road today
Moving, grooving, moving
Up so I can say
3. ON MY WAY
I finally get to go away
Come my way
It's easy if you don't delay
I can shine now
I never let my dream decay
And I'll be gone tomorrow I'm leaving and I'm ON MY WAY
repeat and fade: ON MY WAY...ON MY WAY...ON MY WAY
