Words and Music by Jeff Wall

Life on the road for a Traveling Musician.

My wife and I had driven to Richmond VA to look at a used car and to visit with old friend Wes Freed. We had dinner together and on the way back home it started snowing, it was getting late, so my wife wanted us to stop somewhere and get a room, a decent room. I tend to stay in much nicer rooms when she is with me. The next morning, I’m stumbling around trying to gather up my stuff and find my missing sock when she asks me:

“Jeff, What time is it?”
“It’s 10:30, baby.”
“When is Check-Out time?”
“Checkout time is at 11.”
“Okay”

Then just a few minutes later

“Honey, What time is it?”
“it’s 10:40, baby”
“What time is Checkout time?”
“Checkout time is at 11.”

Then again, just a few minutes later

“Honey, What time is it?”
“It’s 10:47”
“When is checkout time again?”

This song was finished by 11.
