A Rollin' Stone

The link will take you to the last song I can remember that was on my soundtrack for my life then. Sorry, but I couldn't find the complete song anywhere. When I was working as a late night janitor at the A & W Drive-In on the south end of town, I'd bring my little cassette player and turn up the tape as I mopped floors. When a certain girl graduated when I was finishing my junior year in high school, I wished her well and then drove off on my motorcycle like a heartsick Bronson (see reference to old TV show). I wasn't the only one. My backpacking buddy a few years ago surprised me by telling a boy that "Easy Rider" was the movie for his generation. (This guy didn't go on a road trip in his life.)
