Scooter Tramp
by Shovelwolf

Scooter Tramp, I raise this glass in toast to you!
For everything that you have done
and for all that you've been thru.
You have kept your wheel
against the wind,
and most folks only dream about all the places you have been.

You have ridden the highways
and the byways we call life,
you have had your share of good times
and you have had your share of strife.
And you have lived your life like you always said you would,
yes, you have lived your life like most people wish they could.

You never did give up
and you never did give in
even when the odds were against you
you always knew that you could win.
You have chased your dreams
and you have fought your personal demons
and you never got close to anyone,
but you had your reasons...

So get on your machine
and follow that front wheel
and just remember that you have memories
that no one can ever steal.
And when your final ride is over, on your headstone it will read
"Here lies a scooter tramp, a very rare and special breed."
