Another old tune that I revamped for this project. I wrote this after visiting my elementary school playground, the memory of childhood was so great that I had to make a soundtrack to it. I recorded this at my parent’s house in one long night. My mom likes this one.

Lyrics

El Camino

El Camino-
Heading east,
Tryin to see what the hell is wrong with me
Gettin lost on the streets where I grew up on

can distract me for a minute,
it’s so fun
Visiting the playground
Once upon a concrete kingdom

TV tag and tetherball
Can’t imagine that I ever was that small
Behind the dugout where I’d hide,
sand down the slide

This is where I kissed Jennifer by the swings
in her wintercoat and ponytails
We had a thing that we were married when our swings were in sync

Hangin out by the lost and found
where nobody’s gonna push me around
