A Cord of Wood (Interlocking Rubaiyat)

 

we used to drive the gravel roads

while hoping nothing big explodes

delivering a cord of wood

in pickup trucks with heavy loads

 

we drove more quickly than we should

trying not to lose the firewood

taking corners way to fast

the crazy risks of childhood

 

when thinking back about the past

those memories that we’ve amassed

and stories we still tell today

but mostly just the good ones last

 

a little work, a little play

delivered wood for little pay

we would have done it anyway

yes, would have done it anyway
