CAMPING IN WYOMING


  It's been a long time comin' I need to tie up 
  Some loose ends,
  When morning breaks, In the light of day, I'll head 
  For my paradise.
  We were growin' up, It was Independence Day, 
  My lucky day,
  We all had a hungry heart and wanted to find our 
  Land of hope and dreams.
  We were heading for Wyoming, something of a 
  Jungleland,
  We wanted to experience life Itself, we took a 
  Leap of faith.
  Driving along, we saw a homeless man, we didn't 
  Have hearts of stone,
  He fell to the ground and asked? "lift me up" we 
  Fed him.
  How can a poor man stand such times and live, I 
  Wish I were blind,
  All he wanted was a little human touch, he said, 
  "let's be friends"
   We let him travel with us, he told us a story about 
  Jesse James,
  It was getting dark so we said a prayer to the spirit 
  In the night.
  We were stopped by a highway patrolman because 
  My license plate was missing,
  We made It to Wyoming, I said "I'm going down 
  To the river"
  My girlfriend had a good eye as she saw a snake 
  Close by,
  We got paranoid and Imagined we would be the 
  Last to die.
  She said, "If I should fall behind wait for me" "I 
  Wanna be with you"
  We set camp and a fire, I said, "yes! I'll work for 
  Your love"

  She said, "you know I'm on fire for you"

 This was a great adventure, camping in Wyoming.
