**Title: Road Trip** **[Intro ]** I feel like going for a drive… Haven’t a clue where I’ll go… Just me, the road, and freedom. **(Drawn out)** Ahh yeah That sounds nice, don’t it? **[Verse 1 ]** I feel like going for a drive Haven’t a clue where I’ll go Just as long as I’m alive And I feel that open road Windows all rolled down LeDoux is on the deck Won’t even slow down Flippin’ the cassette It’s been so long Since I didn’t give a hoot It's a freedom kinda song And some old-school boots Truck’s all pumped up And Hell so am I I've been Ready to roll It's Time for me to fly **[Chorus]** Road trip Sunshine on my face No noise, no phone Just me and empty space Road trip Gas up full of dreams Ain’t nobody hollerin’ Or needin’ anythin I got twenty more songs Where that one came from Front dash is a rattlin’ This will be some fun Yeah, I’m finally free Lord, don’t that feel right Just me and the road And a perfect blue sky **[Break ]** But wait… I’m forgettin’ somethin’… **(GANG YELL)** "Henry?!"**(Wife concerned)** Henry?! **[Verse 2]** Were you listenin’ To anything I said to you? Get your head out the clouds, babe Pull into that drive-thru Kids yellin’ in the back Wife talkin’ in my ear Startin to lose my mind Lord, I need a beer It was all a dream Freedom rang the bell One second ridin’ solo Then woke up in family hell Somebody spilled a juice box Somebody needs to pee Somebody said “are we there yet” While yelling right at me My eye started twitchin’ My jaw got real tight And I just passed three Rigs In the broad daylight Henry, it’s okay She touched my arm with a smile Kids, y’all shut up! Give Dad a break for a while You’ve been drivin’ too long Let’s stop and breathe a bit I’ll sing you that song Just calm down and sit There ain’t nothin’ more important Than keepin’ tempers down And in this very instant Bringin’ feet back to the ground You were in your happy place And that’s alright for a minute But I need you in this space And know that you are in it Cause baby, take a breath You’re forty over the limit **[Musical Drop ]** **[Bridge]** She said, baby, listen close Before your gasket blows This ain’t just a kid trip There’s somethin’ you don’t know We’re takin’ them to Grandma's And Grampa’s fishin’ pond They’re stayin’ for the summer So we can get us gone I booked us up the mountain Where the hot springs steam No cartoons in the mornin’ No young 'en's fightin' screams And tucked inside my suitcase There’s that skimpy little thing The one that makes your motor Start purrin’ fit to sing **[Final Chorus]** Road trip Sunshine on my face No noise, no phone Just me and my baby’s Legs Road trip Grandma’s straight ahead And Daddy found religion From what Mama said Road trip Hot springs in our sights Kids get summer memories We get mountain nights Road trip from losin’ my mind To 55 Ain’t it funny what can happen When Simple words revive **[Outro ]** Wife said, “Henry, you’re goin’ eight under now.” I said, “Safety first, sweetheart.” Kid said, “Dad, are we there yet?”
