TRAVELIN' TUESDAY

It's Travelin' Tuesday, 

So let me begin,

To tell you my story 'bout travelin',

I was born in St. Louis,

By God's good graces,

But I wanted to travel to different places.

By train or plane,

Or boat or car,

Travelin' fast and travelin' far,

I wanted to see,

What the world was like,

Even if I had to ride my bike!

My first big trip,

Was to Tacoma, it was raining,

Too bad it was for basic training,

I traveled to Boulder,

For some things I lusted,

I fried my brain, and nearly got busted.

I hitchhiked across America,

Boy, that was dumb,

Let me hear a DUH,

I met diverse people,

And it was fun,

Until I got that ride from the dude with a gun,

He didn't kill me,

As you can see,

But it took me awhile to clean up my pee.

Me and my buddy,

Thought it would be great,

To go to Florida for spring break,

Ft. Lauderdale was groovy,

The girls were chummy,

But my car broke down, and we were out of money,

We made it back,

'Cause a dude took us in,

And fixed the car with a safety pin.

(True story)

The Grand Canyon was awesome,

But here's the sad tale,

Where I almost "bought it" on Bright Angel Trail,

The mules were a-coming,

There wasn't much room,

Got too close to the edge,

And went down with a boom.

 However, twas only a few feet I'd drop,

How happy I was, when I fell on that rock.

So watch what you wish for,

It's nice to roam,

Travelin's fun,

But it's safer at home!
