Lyrics

“The #Vanlife”
(Columbia Riverside Sessions)

I was feeling in a rut
Thinking my soul’s engine might get stuck
Knocking on the door of life
Frustration like this has come more than twice
The future of my youth
I can’t take back what I’ve done
But I can drive up right into this toll booth

If I knew half of what I know now
I wouldn’t have waited to build this rig
And get out of town
Perhaps the beauty I found in all of this
Is it made me take a step back from the world
And learn how to function in it

In the hashtag vanlife so my soul wouldn’t rust
Continuously getting stuck in nothing but forest mud
The trip of my youth mapping it out right
The only place I need to be is where I park it for the night
In hashtag Vanlife

Maybe it was wanderlust
Saving green in my pocket
Or paying for degrees on a student budget
My reason might be different than yours
So down this gravel I will go with
The freedom of an open road

In the hashtag vanlife so my soul wouldn’t rust
Continuously getting stuck in nothing but forest mud
The trip of my youth mapping it out right
The only place I need to be is where I park it for the night
In hashtag Vanlife

Carpenter, Entrepreneur,
Electrician and Engineer
Mechanic now
And a Plumber too
Well it took a lot to get here

In the hashtag vanlife so my soul wouldn’t rust
Continuously getting stuck in nothing but forest mud
The trip of my youth mapping it out right
The only place I need to be is where I park it for the night
In hashtag Vanlife

The hashtag vanlife so my soul wouldn’t rust
Continuously getting stuck in nothing but forest mud
The trip of my youth mapping it out right
The only place I need to be is where I park it for the night
In hashtag Vanlife

The only place I need to be in vanlife
The only place I need to be in vanlife
The only place I need to be in vanlife
The only place I need to be
Is absolutely nowhere
