Subject: Lyr Add: WILLIN' (The Byrds)
I've been warped by the rain, driven by the snow I'm drunk and dirty, don't you know And I'm still, willin'
Out on the road late last night I'd see my pretty Alice in every headlight Alice, Dallas Alice
And I've been from Tucson to Tucumcari Tehachapi to Tonopah Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed And if you give me weed, whites, and wine And you show me a sign I'll be willin', to be movin'
Tucumcari (New Mexico) and Tehapachi (California) both lie on the former classic Route 66. Tucson (Arizona) lies on I-19 going south to the Mexican border. It has kilometer posts and speed limits in kph and mph. Tonopah (Nevada), midway between Las Vegas and Reno, stands at the junction of R6 and R95.
