ALERT!!! VACATION UNDER CONSTRUCTION!!!! This song is prompted by spending too many single nights in hotels. I ask all my talented friends (especially you, Jim) to put this to music.
Lord, how many days?
How many days must I stay
Just one night in a hotel?
I am weary
Yes, so weary of the schlepping
Of computers to my room.
Oh, lord, how many days?
How many days must I stay
Just one night in a hotel?
Give me a sign
Please give me a sign that eating
Just shrimp and salad
Has come to an end.
Lord, lord, how many days?
How many days must I stay
Just one night in a hotel?
And then, I had a vision
Yes, a vision of perhaps three days
To rest my head.
And I said, yes, we can do it
If we drive throughout the day
To our goal.
There is a plan
Truly a plan to which we have committed
To lay my burden down.
Lord, how many days?
How many days must I stay just one day
In a hotel?
Our plan now is to jettison Meridian, MS, stay one night in Vicksburg, MS, axe Shreveport, LA and stay three nights in Dallas. Then we will dash across Texas and New Mexico in two days and stay three nights in Flagstaff. Hopefully this is a better plan.
