The 301 Blues

I created this blues song last night, as we drove for twelve hours on a six hour trip! I had it all in my head, so I should have typed it up last night. Now, I will have to remember the agony of the road trip in order to remember the words to the blog! oh well, here we go.

I got up in the morning, da da da da da (a little blues rhythm there)
Got all ready to go (da da da da da)
Left the house at Eleven o-five (da da da da da)
Ready to go ( na na na na na)
