Grand Caravan

In a way that lease we broke is a good thing you see We can travel forever now, it only just set us free We can see the sights outside the city lights Come on with me sweetie, we'll soar to new heights We can go to the ocean and put our toes in the sand Wish upon the stars and sleep in the Caravan There are truck stops with pretty good Dinners Nothing to stop us, unless we get flat tires I can make some money there playing my guitar solos We'll keep basically to ourselves and ignore the hobos I know a interstate highway that runs west We'll save money bathing as we're dressed We could lay out and drip dry on the shore And then never want for anything more Lets get that sixty two dollars out of the bank It will be more than enough to fill up the tank Just you and me against the open road We can search the beaches for lost gold Just pack up the van with only our clothes In no time at all, we'll be smelling like a rose

great trucking poem!! I see they have lots of things like showers and stuff along the road, but sure is expensive to use them. I really like this, a great parody and congrats for the win. LUv, Andrea
