Applying for Poetic License....
It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems I'm wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd ride all night just to get to San Diego
I'm a cowboy,
On a Red Mule I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive
Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think
[Chorus]
I ride down PCH 1,
a loaded iPhone in my pack
I ride for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all
I'm a cowboy, on a Red Mule I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the Pacific Ocean on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still ride, dead or alive
Dead or alive
Take me down
To the paradise city
Where the water is blue
And the girls are pretty
Take me to San Diego
Just a' urchin
Rodin' on the street
I'm a hard case
that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case
So buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Rags to Riches or so they say
Ya gotta-keep pushin'
for the fortune and fame
It's all a gamble
When it's just a game
Ya treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doin' their time
[Chorus:]
Strapped in the seat
of my Trek 3700
Why I'm here I can't quite remember
The surgeon general says
it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another bowl of tobacco
but I can't see
Tell me who you're gonna believe
[Chorus]
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a 50 yr old wanderer
with a broken heart
He said-
I don't want this to end
take me back to the start
I must be losin' my mind-
"Are you blind?"
I've seen it all a million times
Good Morning Alabama, Texas and California!
Think I'll get my hair done today.
Finally long enough to get it highlighted.
Some people say I'm vain...
I just say.... No....
I'm too beautiful to be vain.
You just can't keep a good ego down can ya???
I think that is a fine idea. The finish touch for your trip. By the way loved the poem inserts. Quite fitting for you. Enjoy that cup of java, you have earned the right to let your hair down. Though I love the sign in the coffee shoppe. That is precious. I will have to remember that.
