The Best Day - George Strait (full lyrics) We loaded up my old station wagon With a tent, a Coleman, and sleeping bags Some fishing poles, a cooler of cokes Three days before we had to be back When you\u0027re seven you\u0027re in seventh heaven When you\u0027re going camping in the wild outdoors As we turned up on that old dirt road He looked at me and swore Dad, this could be the best day of my life I\u0027ve been dreaming day and night about the fun we\u0027ll have Just me and you doing what I\u0027ve always wanted to I\u0027m the luckiest boy alive This is the best day of my life His fifteenth birthday rolled around Classic cars were his thing When I pulled in the drive with that old \u0027vette I thought that boy would go in sane When you\u0027re in your teens Your dreams revolve around four spinning wheels We worked nights on end \u0027till it was new again And as he sat behind the wheel He said Dad This could be the best day of my life I\u0027ve been dreaming day and night about the fun we\u0027ve had Just me and you Doing what I\u0027ve always wanted to I\u0027m the luckiest boy alive This is the best day of my life Standing in a little room Back of the church with our tuxes on Looking at him I say I can\u0027t believe son that you\u0027re grown He said Dad This could be the best day of my life I\u0027ve been dreaming day and night Of being like you Now it\u0027s me and her Watching you and mom I\u0027ve learned I\u0027m the luckiest man alive This is the best day of my life I\u0027m the luckiest man alive This is the best day of my life
