The Gravel Song

Last week, Philip was on Spring Break. One day, I brought my guitar with me, and we wrote another song together. It's to the tune of "In My Life" by the Beatles:

Last week Dad ordered gravel
To be delivered in our backyard
He wants to make a pathway
From the driveway down to the shed
The dump truck showed up in our driveway
And backed up to dump its load
I heard him put on the backup beeper
I was so excited I thought I might explode

Now we have a mound of gravel
Sitting out there in our backyard
And I keep on asking Dad
To rent a machine to move it around
I really want him to rent a bobcat
Or backhoe or tractor
or something that we can ride together
Whatever it is, it will be fun.
