"America" - Counting the cars on the Natchez Trace Parkway....(Solby Version)

 With a nod to Simon and Garfunkel

"Let us go touring, we'll tackle the tough climbs together 
We sold our real estate back in TO
So we packed up our thermarests, in search of warm blue skies,
And drove off to look for America. 

"Marc", I said as we crossed with our Nexus in Windsor
“High Park seems like a dream to me now"
It took us six days to cycle to Tupelo
We’ve come to cycle America

Laughing in the tent
Watching games on our cell phones
Kim said the bakery at French Camp worth a stop by
Dave said be careful in Jackson it's really a city 
 
“Toss me a Builders Bar, I think there's one in my tube bag”
"We ate the last an hour ago"
So I looked at the scenery, he read his average speed,
And the sun rose over a cotton field. 
 
"Marc, we're lost”, I said, though he knew I was teasing. 
Waters empty, butt's aching and I do know why 
Counting the cars on the Natchez Trace Parkway 
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America
