Steemit Open Mic Week 51 Original song "Rocketbilly"

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

Hi guys! Here's an original about a dream I had where I was blasting into space on a moonshine powered rocket. Going planet to planet, living free... As a moonshine powered Rocketbilly. Cause when you're a Rocketbilly whether you're drinkin' up or blastin' off, you're always powered by that same ole moonshine.


Well I dreamed I was a Rocketbilly
Goin planet to planet and livin' free
With a moonshine rocket and a afterglow
I'm rocket fueled wherever I go
So drink up or blast off, rocket fueled you must be
When you're a moonshine rocketbilly
Drink up or blast off, rocket fueled you must be...
Moonshine Rocketbilly

Well my girl's an astro-mixologist
With a highly classified ingredient list
She keeps 'em rocket fueled with high class rotgut
And her Space Shot will kick you in the butt
So drink up or blast off, rocket fueled you must be
When you're a moonshine rocketbilly
Drink up or blast off, rocket fueled you must be...
Moonshine Rocketbilly

A Rocketbilly's ship is a part of him
Cause it's where he lives and where he's been
Well mine's a blast from the past and I like it that way
They don't make rocketships like back in the day
So drink up or blast off, rocket fueled you must be
Moonshine Rocketbilly...


Thanks for listening, I hope you enjoy this star-crossed song inspired by my vision of living free among the stars powered by moonshine which the Rocketbilly is able to produce for himself. Or acquire in free trade from the countless space settlements that he circulates among.

A moonshine fuel that can be produced from most any type of fruit or sugary cane that might grow on the crater soil of many a planetoid and low-tech farming world. Thereby flying and drinking a fuel of a highly decentralized nature.

If you like my song, do me a favor sometime and have a shot of moonshine while looking to the stars and imagine yourself zooming planet to planet, living free as a moonshine powered Rocketbilly!!

Thank you luzcypher! I think Steemit would be one of the main networks by which Rocketbillys would coordinate their activities and of course, trade Steem for moonshine (and vice versa) ;-)

We can call it Steemshine.
