Description:
Parking lot Gringo I gave my notice at the place where I live Gotta be somethin better than living like this So I said good-bye to the life I once knew with my Ford camper truck and new how do you do's Now I'm headin out to the big rodeo my backyards the world and my windshield the road With an old rusted bucket and a few dollar bills a new take on my pension gives me a new thrill Got no rent no Hydro no phone bills to pay good-bye to the Mice I said have a nice day Then I gave my Adieus to the girls at Tim Horton's Don't cry for me I'm just a stone that's a rollin Chorus: I'm a parking lot Gringo I live where I'm at If I don't like my neighbors I just step on the gas A Gypsy they say cause I don't fit in I keep my nose to the grinder and my back to the wind Verses: I'm a modern day Hobo in a boxcar with class my wheels are all rubber don't need railroad tracks My outhouse is inside and it's great I love beans I got propane to heat me and it's a loving machine Now I'm the Pied Piper conducting the band the Lamplighter to light the night in the land My credentials are countless and you oughta know I'm a long list of Hobos and Kings of the road Now the North snow blows cold and it's getting late Is there a warm place where they don't discriminate But one thing's for certain when I get to where I'm at there'll be some ol lot where me my old truck can squat Chorus: End If there is a moral to this story, it's that chances are, you can and will eventually perish in your comfort zone, I got out of it. You can too! Words & Music Paul Henry Dallaire Paul Henry Pub. SOCAN.CA Work # 38666140 U.S.Rep: ASCAP
