"Drive South"

Added to Soundtrack Weekend www.ipernity.com/group/362993

Here comes a slightly vague/tenuous link, in need of an explanation I think, for Soundtrack Weekend :-))

I do believe this is a Ford Model B Roadster and I do know for sure I took the shot at the Kop Hill Climb in 2013 :-)

The song 'Drive South' written by John Hiatt recorded by him on his 1988 album 'Slow Turning' includes the following lines -
“Though love's not earned, Baby it's our turn
We were always looking for true north
With our heads in the clouds, just a little off course
I left the motor running, now if you're feeling down and out
Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love
Come on Baby drive south, with the one you love
Windows open on the rest of the world
Holdin' hands, all the way to Dixieland”

In 1992, Suzy Bogguss recorded the song for her album 'Voices in the Wind' her first release on Liberty Records.

I do not know the lady in the car but I could imagine cruising down to Dixieland in a Ford Model B Roadster :-)))

The following link is John & Suzy performing the song live way back in 1994 -
