Cover of a Lowell George/Little Feat song about a trucker in the American Southwest, smuggling smokes and folks across the border; he keeps moving with the help of "weed, whites and wine". Sounds like buzzed driving to me.

John, enjoyed your rendition. I especially liked the talk intro (like Tom Petty did it). Very nice. I always enjoy performing this song.
