the best day

Lyrics

we loaded up my old station wagon, with a tent, coleman, and sleepin' bags, some fishin' poles, a cooler of cokes, three days before we had to be back, when you're seven, you're in seventh heaven, when you're goin' campin' in the wild outdoors, and as we turned off o that old dirt road, he looked at me and swore, dad, this could be the best day of my life, i've been dreamin' day and night 'bout the fun we'll have, it's just me and you doin' what i've always wanted to, i'm the luckiest boy alive, this is the best day of my life, well, his fifteenth birthday rolled around, classic cars were his thing, when i pulled in the drive with that old 'vette, i thought that boy would go insane, when you're in your teens, your dreams revolve around four spinning wheels, we worked nights on end 'til it was new again, and as he sat behind the wheel, he said, dad, this could be the best day of my life, i've been dreamin' day and night 'bout the fun we'll have, it's just me and you doin' what i've always wanted to, i'm the luckiest boy alive, this is the best day of my life, standin' in a little room, back of the church with our tuxes on, lookin' at him i say, "i can't believe, son, that you're grown", he said, dad, this could be the best day of my life, i've been dreamin' day and night 'bout bein' like you, now it's me and her watchin' you and mom i've learned, i'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life, i'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life
