The sunrise shines through the patio door, He’s already up and pacing the floor. Pour a hot cup of coffee in my favorite cup, Our same routine, since he was just a pup. In our old Blue Ford, he sits on the front seat, watching the road as we drive down Main street. Just a man and his dog, windows rolled down. Just a man and his dog, our favorite road out of town, Mud on the floorboards, Hair on the seat, Me with my beer and him with his treats. Just a man and his dog, the wind to our faces, Enjoying the ride and exploring new places. When the sun begins to lose its light, We find a favorite spot, to spend the night. As I unroll the tent on the forest floor, He’s out of the truck, guarding the canvas door. As I lie down to sleep, his head on my chest, I drift off to sleep, feeling truly blessed. Just a man and his dog, windows rolled down. Just a man and his dog, our favorite road out of town, Mud on the floorboards, Hair on the seat, Me with my beer and him with his treats. Just a man and his dog, the wind to our faces, Enjoying the ride and exploring new places. Oh, the miles we logged and the places we’ve been, But this is now, and that was then. Now the passenger seat is a lonely space, But I still have memories of the sun on your face. I look to the corner of the tent where you’d rest, Reliving adventures, still feeling blessed,. Just a man and his dog, windows rolled down. Just a man and his dog, our favorite road out of town, Mud on the floorboards, Hair on the seat, Me with my beer and him with his treats. Just a man and his dog, the wind to our faces, Enjoying the ride and exploring new places. ohhhh....... Just a man and his dog.
