Retiring Friend

I heard you just retired today
Now I have something to say
Get your head out of the sky
Don’t let your life pass you by
Pack your bags, hop in your car
You can travel near or just go far
See all the states you never saw
See the wonders, like Niagara Falls
Take a trek up the Appalachian Trail
Or buy a big boat and just let it sail
There’s plenty of golf in Myrtle Beach
And plenty of fine food just in reach
Loving adventure is the greatest potion
Take a plane ride across the Atlantic Ocean
You’ve got the money and the time
If you need a friend, keep me in mind
