Willin'
Journey of Freedom: Resilience and Wanderlust
Lyrics
I been warped by the rain, driven by the snow
I have experienced challenges influenced by various elements like rain and snow.
I'm drunk and dirty, don't you know
I am inebriated and unclean, emphasizing a rough lifestyle.
But I'm still willin'
Despite my difficulties, I remain willing and resilient.
Out on the road late last night
During a late-night journey, memories of someone named Alice occupy my thoughts.
I'd see my pretty Alice in every headlight
I imagine seeing Alice in the headlights of passing vehicles.
Alice, Dallas Alice

Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made

Driven the backroads so I wouldn't get weighed

And if you give me weed, whites and wine

And you show me a sign

Had my head stove in but I'm still on my feet
