Van Life

Back in my younger days
I had a van to drive
I built in a bed and shag carpet
As I drove I felt so alive.

I'm much older now
But inside the kid is still there
I got me another van
I'll drive it everywhere

A few things I've learned
After my first fun trip.
It still hurts to bang you head
And setting on your feet hurts the hip.

When night time falls
The moon and the stars are bright
You stretch out on the bed
And your mind gets right.

So don't condemn this style
I'm living without strife
I'm free to move around,
I'm living the VAN LIFE.
