Marching Tune

When I left home my mama said "this boy ain't no good"
She kissed my cheek, waved goodbye, guess she never had a clue
The chapter closed I headed south, the flowers were in bloom
All the beauty in the world could not match my marching tune

I met the people of the road, we got along just fine
The visions I had as a child slowly came to life
I saw cheaters cheat their hearts, I saw stranded men
And I saw the world unfolding in the palm of my right hand

Living on the road, I do as I please
I'm writing my own book full of sudden twists
Heartbreak, sleepless nights, got no time for that
The things I've done, the things I've seen
Are the only things that count
Alright, alright

It's been a year driving around, I don't miss the quiet life
I have my lunch before the dawn nd sleep beneath the stars
Family is not for me, I'm not waiting for the call
I got my car and a bunch of maps and I go where I wanna go

Living on the road, I do as I please
I'm writing my own book full of sudden twists
Heartbreak, sleepless nights, got no time for that
The things I do, the things I see are making babies in my mind
Alright, alright

So many lives, I don't want to choose just one
Where the hills kiss the sky I'll be fine
Oh
I'll be fine

Living on the road, I do as I please
I'm writing my own book full of sudden twists
Heartbreak, sleepless nights, got no time for that
The things I do, the things I see are making babies in my mind
Alright, alright
