No Sir,I Do Not Need a Map

Have no idea where I am off to I am bot lost, cause I have been found My job is done here, the best I can see Roll my bed and grab a thing or two Going to be looking for some new ground You see it is about being free If the Sun comes up tomorrow I know that I will get an early start Come evening and where it sets Where I will hang my hat without any sorrow Sleep well and no anger in my heart Been a good life with no regrets From outfit to outfit has been my life A tumbleweed and a rolling stone Never was one to like a barb wire fence Life is to short for all of this strife With his love I have never been alone Living by my wits and using common sense If it is my time to go and my number is up I won't be one to keep the Good Lord waiting I know that the angels will take me up Angel Trail About out of coffee, maybe one more cup Maybe some old grounds for re heating And the head out on a new trail It is not a end, but a new beginning The trail has been twisted and long Sometimes I got tired and took a nap In the end it is all about winning I have been promised he will forgive me of all my wrong "No Sir, I do not need a map"

Oh, I hear your message, Danny! And when my number is up, I'm ready to meet our Maker. It seems you are living life to the fullest as God intended, so surely you will "not need a map." Awesome! Love, Carolyn
