Verse 1
Travis McGee's still in Cedar Key
That's what old John MacDonald said
My rendezvous's so long overdue
With all of the things I've sung and I've read
They still apply to me
They all make sense in time
Chorus
But now I'm incommunicado
Drivin' by myself down the road with a hole in it
Songs with no vibrato
Taking the long way home

Verse 2
Now on the day that John Wayne died
I found myself on the continental divide
Tell me where do I go from here
Think I'll ride into Leadville and have a few beers
I think of "Red River" or "Liberty Valance"
Can't believe the old man's gone
Chorus
But now he's incommunicado
Leaving such a hole in a world that believed
That a life with such bravado
Was taking the right way home

Verse 3
So when I finished that last line
I put the book by itself on the shelf with my heart in it
Never wastin' time, takin' the right way home
I know I'm never wastin' time, findin' the right way home
Chorus
Still I am incommunicado
Livin' next door to a leg with a pin in it
Life with such bravado
Is taking the right way home
Outro
Tryin' to make it
Tryin' to fake it
Tryin' to take it home
Tryin' to make it
Trying to fake it
Tryin' to take it home. I know I'm
Tryin' to make it
Sometimes I fake it
Tryin' to take it home. All I'm doin' is
Tryin' to make it
Tryin' to fake it
Tryin' to take it home
But now I'm incommunicado...
