~Ain't no road too long!

I used to watch this movie like 10 times everyday when i was 3 to 5 years of age lol. And to be listening to the songs again, they're kinda motivating, especially this one. Am dedicating this to Ayah. Happy Father's Day! Love you so much :)

Waylon jennings: so you are the bird on the run huh?

Big bird: oh yeah! and i can't wait to get back to my real home on sesame street! i figure i can walk back there in oh about uh three hours.

Jennings: three hours? more like three weeks buddy.

Big bird: three weeks? oh no! i'll never get home.

Jennings: sure you will. you just gotta keep going. pick up your feet and follow your beak.

Big bird: oh i don't know.

Jennings: listen to me son.

(sung)


I found out a long time ago

You gotta learn to say "yes" when life says "no"

Don't dwell on the bad times once they're past

That kind of thinking gets you nowhere fast



'cause there ain't no mountain you can't climb

If you hang on tight and just make up your mind

Once you set your heart to movin' on

Son there ain't no road too long

(gordon olivia and cookie monster are in a yellow volkswagen looking for big bird. gordon is driving. they're all singing unless it says otherwise.)

Gordon: don't look back; don't you turn around!

Olivia: just keep your eye on where you're bound!

Gordon and olivia: and you're bound to get from here to there
'cause a dream can take you anywhere!

Cookie monster (spoken): oh! take me to cookies!

Super grover: 'cause there ain't no mountain you can't climb

If you hang on tight and just make up your mind



Count von count: and once you set your heart to moving on hut hut

Then there is no road too long!

(spoken) and you can count the telephone poles! one telephone pole two telephone poles three telephone poles four telephone poles!

(oscar is driving maria and telly in his sloppy jalopy. maria is looking at a road map.)

(spoken)

Maria: oscar this isn't route 12!
Oscar : picky picky picky.
Telly: oh no!
Maria (as the sloppy jalopy lurches down a rolling field): oh oh!
Oscar: i never promised you a rose garden!

(ernie is piloting bert in an airplane as they look for big bird)

Ernie: oh we're gonna find him all right bert!
Bert: yeah.
Ernie: hey you remember what color he is?
Bert: what?
Ernie: he's yellow!
Bert: ernie!

(ernie laughs and flies right over the truck without seeing big bird!)
(sung)


Big bird: 'cause there ain't no mountain you can't climb
