    BACK ROADS

     driving around with no place to be
    looking for solace, I need some peace
    away from the bustle of to and fro
    so I take to the comfort of the back roads

    back roads are solid, always there
    when you need to be without any cares
    looking ahead all that I see
    is this gravel road, and open country

    visions of farm land all freshly plowed
    blood sweat and tears you should be proud
    proud you live in God's beautiful country
    land of the proud, home of the free

    so as I drive I'm reminded
    the cost of freedom, those behind it
    so I can be free to travel alone
    on this nation's great backroads

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
