The Adventure of Life

I haven’t a dime to pay my way
As I walk down the pathways of life
But I whistle and sing as I walk along
Free from all care and strife.

For life is a great adventure to me
That can’t be enjoyed sitting still.
There are rivers to cross and roads to explore
And that lake at the top of the hill.

Follow the call of the open road
Or hike to the distant hills;
Fly to the moon, or sail the high seas,
Whatever provides the right thrills.

Take the life that’s been given to you
Face it with a song and a smile.
Reach out for the many joys to be had
And make the adventure worth while.
