Stealing My Heart
I was thinking you were crazy as hell,
And you were so innocent,
But you were stealing my heart,
I fell in love in the back of a cop car.

Coneflower
Giant footsteps are what you take,
Walking on the moon,
I hope my legs don't break,
Walking on the moon,
We could walk forever,
Walking on the moon,
Walking on the moon,
We could live together,
Walking on, walking on the moon.

Redhead Ridin' Shotgun
Well it's a long way to Richmond,
Rollin' north on 95,
With a redhead ridin' shotgun,
And a pistol by my side,
Tearin' down that highway,
Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde.
