won't you give me a ride
F

Oh, we finished the coffee and

we got in the car

We drove off and hadn't gone far

He said "Long around 1942
Buddy, I robbed a bank in Kalamazoo

Just to get enough money to

But she died when she
heard what I had done
And ever since I've been on the run

Standing on the hi- ways a callin'

A callin' mister won't

So, three nights later at Rusty's door
