about

Last minute Hail Mary. Inspired by a roll of duct tape

lyrics

I've got everything I need,
to get me down the road
I've got my old seabag,
so I can carry all my clothes
I've got a clean pair of socks,
and an old broke in pair of boots
You have to take care of your feet,
If you want your feet to take care of you

I've gon an old beat up hat,
to keep the sun out of my eyes
A twenty hidden in the sweatband
In case my throat gets dry
And there upon my face
You will find a big ole smile
And a song upon my lips
to help eat away the miles

I've got my Daddy's pocket knife,
Sharp enough to do the trick
In case I have to cut myself
A brand new walking stick
I've got a roll of duct tape
And 10ft of baling wire
I can fix most anything
With that and a pair of pliers

When I arrived here I had nothing
And I'll still have it when I leave
The only thing I'm searching for
Is a safe warm place to sleep
I've got no destination
No place that I have to be
No one else to worry about
Or rely upon but me

I'll wake up in the morning
With the rising of the sun
And I'll flip a coin up in the air
To see which way I should turn
My destination is the journey
I'm just going with the flow
I've got everything I need
To get me down the road

I've got everything I need
To get me down the road
