We loaded up my old station wagon With a tent a Coleman and sleepin' bags Some fishin' poles, a cooler of Cokes Three days before we had to be back When you're seven you're in seventh heaven When you're goin' campin' in the wild outdoors And as we turned off on that old dirt road He looked at me and swore Dad, this could be the best day of my life I've been dreamin' day and night about the fun we have had, It's just me and you doin' what I've always wanted to. I'm the luckiest boy alive This is the best day of my life Well His fifteenth birthday rolled around Classic cars were his thing When I pulled in the drive with that old Vette I thought that boy would go insane When you're in your teens Your dreams revolve around four spinnin' wheels We worked nights on end utill it was new again And as he sat behind the wheel he said Dad, this could be the best day of my life I've been dreamin' day and night about the fun we've had Just me and you doin' what I've always wanted to I'm the luckiest boy alive This is the best day of my life Standin' in a little room back of the church with our tuxes on Lookin' at him I say, I can't believe, son, that you've grown. He said Dad, this could be the best day of my life I've been dreamin' day and night of bein' like you Now it's me and her watchin' you and mom I've learned I'm the luckiest man alive This is the best day of my life I'm the luckiest man alive This is the best day of my life
