From Spirit Rock to Abhayagiri 
On through the heartland 
Scent of tamarack and alder 
Almost to Oregon
Turning our wheels for the dharma 
We just keep on cycling, 
'cuz we all got our karma
 
Monks in saffron robes at the pit stops 
Intoning wisdom  
On what is a pilgrim 
And what is not
 
Turning our wheels for the dharma 
We just keep on cycling, 
'cuz we all got our karma
 
What is the point of this journey? 
--Besides that I got damage 
And you got a bad knee--
 
What is the point of this journey? 
With the wheels spins the mind 
Obsessively 
 
What is the point of this journey? 
--Besides that the destination 
isn't what I expected it to be--
 
Is the point to get to the top of that hill? 
'Cuz if the upslopes don't satisfy you 
Babe then nothin' will
 
Turning our wheels for the dharma 
We just keep on cycling, 
there's no end to our karma  |
