3. Grew up in Houston off the Wayside Drive

Son of a carhop in some all night dive
Dad drove a stockcar to an early death
All I remember was a drunk man's breath

God, I love Rodney. If you like him too try this, it's his rock album:

4. I never knew RC wrote that song

but I knew he wrote some of Roseanne Cash's songs. I think he was married to her for a while as well.

5. Linda Ronstadt sings on that NGDB song.

That may be the voice that tickles down inside of your ear.
