I wrote this song inspired by the movie "Nomadland" and by an artist friend of mine that has been traveling the USA in his van since Nov. of 2020.
I admire those that can give up most of their belongings and wander the world.
I guess I am still possessed by material things.
Rubber Tramp
Words and Music © 2021 by Brent Godfrey
Verse 1:
Everything that I own is in this van
I explore the great wild world as I explore my inner self
Not controlled by society or material things
I?m blessed by the friends that I make and the gifts than nature brings
Chorus:
I?m a Rubbertramp I?m a Gypsy Man
I?m a Wanderer In Nomad Land
I?m not Homeless I?m Houseless
I travel this road alone
Not sure what I?m looking for, when I find it I?ll know
Verse 2:
I hit the road to live in peace and artistry
My wife was a dreamer, her heart was full of hope
I still hear her voice when the wind whispers through the leaves
And I see her silhouette in the shadows of the trees
Chorus
Verse 3
I don?t miss my old life anymore
I?ve found beauty in nature and truth in it?s silence
I don?t need all the things I used to have
Give me my health and my freedom and I?lll be a Happy Man
Chorus
I?m a Rubbertramp I?m a Gypsy Man
I?m a Wanderer In Nomad Land
