Livin' The Dream: An Ode to the Road

Livin’ The Dream

Music and lyrics by Bing Futch

from the album, The Beauty and the Terror

Well, I've done lots of travelin' all across the USA

from Irish pubs to country clubs and any place they'll let me play

there's more to this old life I live than Point A to Point B

because somewhere in the middle, I get along in my RV

We hit the trail a-runnin' where the rubber meets the road

and some folks may call this kind of life "extreme"

it's another highway holiday and I tote an easy load

between the cities, towns and all that's in between

I guess that you could say I'm livin' the dream

There ain't no moss a-gatherin' on this here rolling stone

from place to place, any parking space is good enough to call my home

I've seen the sun rise in the Smokies, then set a course for Myrtle Beach

so many destinations that are right within my reach

We hit the trail a-runnin' where the rubber meets the road

and some folks may call this kind of life "extreme"

it's another highway holiday and I tote an easy load

between the cities, towns and all that's in between

I guess that you could say I'm living the dream

Some folks need to get away, well I'm blessed

'cause I can do it every day, it just melts away the stress

to see a cool, clear river flow and then hit the road for the show

man, what a way to go

From Washington to Georgia and Texas to Michigan

got a kitchen, bath and bedroom powered by a Ford V-10

I've been a lot of places and some I've never seen

so I can't resist to make a bucket list for me and my machine
