Ode to Josiah (Living in a Car)
 
  He ran
Fast as anyone can
Away from home
He chose to roam
Didn’t get along
But he took his song
He ran far
Now living in a car
Not much company
Such an epiphany
Freedom rang
Every time he sang
Sleeping in his car
His pillow his guitar
Song his creation
The road his destination
Dreams he has many
Doubts, no room for any
His heart so large
His soul in charge
Living in a car
Guided by a star
As if blind
He left so much behind
Stubbornly he wanted more
Wind beneath his wings to soar
Fast foods, fast times
Hard hills, hard climbs
Living in a car
Healing of a scar
Like a baby bird has flown
Alone into a zone unknown
Why he made a dash
Was he headed for a crash?
He made a hard choice
Hoping for one to hear his voice
Can this boy sing?
To him it’s everything
And it will do him good
He’s going to Hollywood

wow I don't know why those aren't working ok when I did this one

http: //josiahlemingfans.forumsland.com/

I got three hits and the 2nd and third ones (josiahlemingfans) is the one. click on that and then one these words josiah leming forum index and look for chatter folder or on the word chatter..this should take you to the ok..plan and car threads

or if that fails do what I suggested below and look for the 10th link with the word index in it (after you find it click favorites so you can find again easily)

I am sorry they don't work. I am not sure why as I definitely copied them correctly

Jane (if all else fails contact me through a message)

that didn't work


I am not sure why the link is not working right even with paste and copy lets try again (first link below is the site and then look for chatter file

if that does not work type the words josiah leming fans in your browser and count down to the 10th link (that is where it currently is) ..the word index is in the right one and then when there look for the OK so..plan and the birthday car thread OK?

If you can't find it message me again OK..Jane
