She was a race car driver when she was eighteen, 
She had a high-class father who hated her dreams, 
She saved up all of her pennies so she could be free,
Said goodbye to her old life, rode off in the street

She worked four bad jobs to keep on our feet, 
Lived in one room to save on the fees, 
Had our life on the road, her own company
But she wouldn’t change a thing, cause then she met me

We had a courthouse wedding, cheap as can be,
Bought two-dollar rings but we knew what it means
Saved up all our money to buy an RV
Drove it down by the lake to live life as queens

One year later we were then three
Road family that lived life with ease
Wouldn’t change a thing, we’d all agree
Livin’ ain’t easy but we followed our dream

Was du gerade machst

By Mikael Duda

"Was du gerade machst" in ein trauriger Text und spiegelt eine Situation wieder, die wohl jeder einmal durchlebt hat. Die Trennung von seinem Partner ist noch nicht lange her und man fragt sich ständig, was der andere wohl gerade macht. Ist er glücklich? Vermisst er mich? Oder wurde ich schon längst ersetzt? Nach einer Trennung hatte ich genau diese Gedanken und es bereitete mir schlaflose nächte. Die Zeit in der ich nicht schlief nutzte ich dann, um diesen Song zu schreiben. Ein sehr trauriger und depressiver Text.
