Winter vacation, seventy-three Drivin’ to Florida in a used RV Mom, Dad and my old dog, big joe Didn't think it snowed south of D.C. Woke up the next morning, what did I see A blanket of white stuff, high and low All I could say was how could it be That snow reached up well past my knee Parked on I95 with no place to go Stuck in Carolina in two feet of snow Campin' on the highway watchin' it blow Met some cool folks I'd never see again Wonder where they went, where they been Never rains in California playin' on the radio Even if we wanted, couldn't call for a tow A line a cars far as the eye could see Plows commin’ soon? cops said no This was turnin’ into a real tail a woe Folks might say, just not my cup a tea Army choppers came and went Said give us a day, help will be sent Eyes to sky, but nota did we see A few days passed, folks sure we're bent Hippies Freezin’ in an old green tent Mom thought how unlucky could we be We waited and waited with no such luck Was the first time I heard someone shout, WHAT THE — I was havin’ fun, but that’s just me Bad news Charlie brought us updates, none of them good Bob and his kids kept warm by burnin’ wood Food was runnin’ low, for big old joe Stuck in Carolina in two feet of snow Campin' on the highway watchin' it blow Met some cool folks I'd never see again Wonder where they went where they been Our beat up RV was like the town green People started talkin’ real mean Sounded like things were gettin’ ready to blow Trucker by the name of July looked under the hood Said you got the power, breakthrough you should That Dodge 440 V8 was Rarin’ to go Pops put the pedal to the metal and plowed straight ahead That old camper shot gunpowder and lead Cleared a path right through that wall of snow A long long time it sure has been I’d love to do it all over again Vacations these days just ain’t the same Here's the moral of the story and lesson to learn Even if you got money to burn Travlin’ first class is awful lame Stuck in Carolina in two feet of snow Campin' on the highway watchin' it blow Met some cool folks I'd never see again Wonder where they went where they been When hittin' the road in an old RV Maybe you'll meet someone Someone . . . just like me
