Jason:
Now I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days
While Mama used to pray my crops would fail
Gunnar:
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways:
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail
Gunnar and Jason:
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me
A fugitive must be a rolling stone
Down every road there's always one more city
I'm on the run, the highway is my home
