Driving A Worn Out Minivan
A long time ago I was wild and reckless… Now I’m tired and restless
My wife says she thinks I’m depressed… I say it’s a midlife crisis
As a younger man my only plan… Was to sing in a country band
Now I’m a fat damn family man… Driving a worn out minivan
I let go of all my dream… To coach my kids soccer team
But when they turn 18… I’ll be moving to Texas Hill country
Now that beautiful day… Seems so damn far away
My youngest is only eight… And I might end up in the grave
My guitar is that the pawn shop… To get the minivan a brake job
When will the madness will stop… So this cosmic cowboy can get off
Back in the day I made the rounds… To every bar in town
Now I’ve put on 20 pounds… And I hate the new country sound
My wife says I need meditation… I think I need self-medication
Or maybe a Texas vacation… Where they still worship Waylon
But here I am… A fat old man… Driving a worn out minivan
