Travel Song

by David Lindsay-Abaire & Jeanine Tesori

on Abaire - Shrek: The Musical - Original Cast Recording (2009)

[Shrek]
You know, this may turn into the longest day of my entire life
[Donkey]
Oh, I got the perfect remedy for that!
[Shrek]
Donkey please no, I am begging you
[Donkey]
Sing a song
Yes a travel song
When you gotta go somewhere
Cause the fun is getting there
Yeah. Oh what the heck, I must confess
I love a road trip!
Sing a song
Hit the trail
Forget the maps. Forget the guides
Before ya know it, you've made strides with me
And I know all I need - all along
Is a path and a pal - and a song
So I'm singin'
And I'm pallin' with you
See? It makes the time go by faster
[Shrek]
Why me?
Why me?
This is nice
Tell me what was my crime?
We are strolling
He's as chatty as a parrot
More annoying than a mime
Hey, look, a cat who's wearing boots!
That's crazy!
Why me?
Why me?
A simple answer would be fine
[Donkey]
This is good cardio
[Shrek]
Won't someone please
Send me a sign?
[Donkey]
Oh look, a sign! Yunita Pal Avenue straight ahead!
What did I do to deserve this?
Honestly
This ass 'o mine is asinine
Why me?
[Donkey]
Oh man, what could be better than this?!
[Shrek]
Why me?
Why me?
A simple answer would be fine
Won't somebody please send me a sign?
[Donkey]
Sing a song!
Hit the road!
It's the way
To get around!
Before ya know it, you've
Gained ground with me!
[Shrek]
What did I do to deserve this?
Honestly
[Donkey]
And I know
All I need
All along is a path
And a pal
And a song
[Shrek]
This ass 'o mine
Is asinine
So, I'm singin'
And I'm pallin'
With you
That'll do Donkey
That'll do
