    Story Behind the Song
    The music for this tune was written around 1977/78. It was inspired by playing lots of bar gigs. Resurrected October of 2002 because I felt it had to be recorded before I totally forgot about it. The lyrics were written back around '77 or "78 as well. I feel that the vocals in this one bring the demented lead character's personality to life.

    Lyrics
    Flying through time - got nothing on my mind
    Burnin' up the streets of small towns
    Seein' what I can find

    The Feds put a tap on my telephone - it's been six weeks since I've been home
    Bein' on the run makes me glad I'm alive

    CHORUS:
    Easy "pick-up" plan the stick-up
    the highway is my friend
    Take no handouts I got my doubts
    Watch for the dead end

    Drinkin' booze got nothin' to lose
    thinking I am the greatest
    fugitive that cannot live - turn on your radio to hear the latest

    Time wreck: hand me the check - stop me
    if you can - you trusted me and now you see
    I ain't no honest man

    REPEAT CHORUS
    SOLO
    REPEAT 1ST VERSE
