...entitled "Airstream Song" that I think would be a perfect fit for Stevie, should she ever get around to doing A) a covers album, or B) a Country album!

Check it out!

That is my favorite song on Miranda's new cd, and while the lyrics would be very fitting for Stevie, I don't want to hear her sing it. Love Miranda's voice on it too much.

Here's the lyrics:

Sometimes I wish I lived in an Airstream
Homemade curtains, lived just like a gypsy
Break a heart, roll out of town
‘Cause gypsies never get tied down

Sometimes I wish I lived on a mountain
Drank from a stream instead of a fountain
I’d stay there, top of the world
But I was born a red dirt girl

Unbridled or tethered and tied
The safety of the fence or the danger of the ride
I’ll always be unsatisfied

Sometimes I wish I lived by a pier
In a lighthouse with a chandelier
I’d watch everybody’s ships come in
And then I’d sail away with them

Unanchored in the storm
Or safely on the shore
If this is all I need, why do I want more

Sometimes I wish I lived in an airstream
Homemade curtains, lived just like a gypsy

I haven't heard the song...but I love those lyrics! I just had to put "cause gypsies never get tied down" in as part of my my msn messenger comment. I love the idea of that...always being free :nod:

Like I said, I've never heard Miranda sing it so I would love to hear Stevie try it...of course, even if I had heard Miranda sing it, I would want to hear Stevie try it :thumbsup:

The lyrics are totally cool! However, more than I would like to see Stevie sing this, I would love for her to be writing new songs like this. :nod:

I agree! It's my favourite too, love that it (probably unintentionally) references two great songs, 'Gypsy' and 'Red Dirt Girl'. ;)

I reckon it's just the mention of gypsies that makes it 'Steviesque', the lyrics are pure Miranda. The song was actually inspired by Merle Haggard's 'The Way I Am', Miranda wanted to write her own version.

How well you know me. I guess my love of Miranda is pretty well documented on facebook. :o

Get it! It's shaping up to be my Album of the Year, ahead of the likes of Rosanne Cash, Chris Isaak, Carly Simon, Rob Thomas and Louise Goffin!:thumbsup:
