Sugar, Sugar : By The Archies

No way to drive slow.

Back in the summer of '69 I was stopped for speeding in my 1969 Mach I Mustang between Ft. Worth and Dallas Texas. I was doing 110 mph. Sugar, Sugar on the radio.

Sex Type Thing - STP, Immigrant Song - Led Zeppelin, Load out/Stay - Jackson Brown.

The Jackson Brown song makes me feel like I'm a band on the bus cruising down the interstate going to the next town. STP and Led Zeppelin makes me wanna WOT!!!
