"That's a Plan" was released in June 2001. Mark McGuinn tells the story of a man who has to import his life, so he plans his future by making changes. He talks about how a small town is not a bad place; so he uses space. He packs his bags and says his goodbyes, and gets a map to point his finger where he lands. He hitched his wagon to a wandering star with a gas and a credit card. The dirt roads look the same to see the world, and life can get back real soon. In the end, a man comes back here again, and finally settles down.👍
Still got his cd too gotta love his unique style of music another early Y2K forgotten artist, thank you for keeping his music memory alive here on RUclips!
Nice tune, I had the good fortune to meet Mark in Canada many years ago when he was up here helping an aspiring country artist write songs. It was before he broke in the US. Very sweet guy and amazing talent. He should do an unplugged thing because just him and an acoustic guitar is a thing of beauty. I was wondering what happened to him and at least now I know a little more. Thanks for the post!
I miss this album. One of those rare ones where every single song is amazing! Trying to find them all so thank you
I've loved this song for a long time, it's finally in here! yeay!
This was one of my favorite songs for driving, my kids love it too.
This song is difficult to track down, but is such a gem ❤
I’ve been looking over this for 18 years
Same here & another one; It’s all about the ride
Thanks so much for this! This when country music was at it's best! Love this song

Mark does a great job of singing but my brother wrote this song. I think of the town we grew up in when I hear this song.
Love it!
Love this one too!
This song and "She Doesn't Dance," also by Mcguinn, are terrific.
