Lyrics:
Henry and me, we got a good thing together
Back in 98 we left for warmer weather, just kids with fake IDs
Houston was big, and we could disappear
Neighbors don’t bug, don’t even come near, we can bus it out to Shreveport
Meet with Jimmy, see what he’s sold
If they’re playing in town, we’ll see the Little Band of Gold
Try our luck at the slots, sleep all the way home
Station’s just a 2 mile walk to our door
Never leave a car at the Greyhound lot
Henry says you might as well leave it unlocked
Henry’s always got us a new set of wheels, loves to strike his own kind of deals
This one’s hot out of Phoenix
He’s rolls in slow makes a show, it’s a '65 Ford, valet tag on the floor
We’re gonna go downtown, show it around
Drive to the coast, leave it for the beach folks
Trade it for a wagon with a picnic in the back and
See what kind of toys the kids dig these days
Then we’ll throw ‘em out the window on the gulf coast highway
So much trash out there, no one can tell anyway
Sunday nights I always call home, always Mom who picks up the phone
I tell her I’m good and I’ll visit soon
Same thing I’ve said for years
She’ll try to muffle those snot nose tears she knows I can’t stand to hear
Henry’s never been much of a flirt, so I never worried about him chasing skirt
Him and me is all we need
Henry’s new best friend’s just the next sucker Lookin’ for a fix, lookin’ for a holding brother
Me and Henry, we’re just like Bonnie and Clyde
Mad for love and dead presidents taken on the sly
Only thing’s we don’t got banks in our sights, just cars and fiends and hungry eyes
Just cars and fiends and hungry eyes
