Our Packs Are Full & Our Hearts Are Bursting

I've been laid off from the migrant work
They said that they would call in two weeks
As soon as the next busy season began.

No better time for me to give in to the ever-present wanderlust.
My youngest brother and I had our maps out
& our bags packed before the sun had set.

It seems reasonable that with 
playing our music in the streets,
doing migrant labor, as available,
plus whatever other odds n' ends are found
that we can continue to wire money home
to pay off student loans.
All without having to settle down anywhere.

Goodbye, Great Lake State.
You will be missed!
