Drivin' Rain (Haynes) A song by Gov't Mule http://www.mule.net/discography/08/index.html#13
Buzzard Rock (BMI)

Do you know me I'm the drivin' rain
And my mama was a hurricane
Dear old daddy before he stormed out high on window pane
Said you're my one and only boy child
Call you the drivin' rain

(Chorus)

Drivin' rain, drivin' rain
Tttalkin' ' bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
But they all want to know me
I'm the drivin' rain

It all started back in '69
I hit the ground running
Couldn't wait to hear those gears grind
Like my daddy I'm stone cold out of my mind
I've driven 'round this world one, two, three, four, five hundred times

(Chorus)

Do you remember first time you heard the thunder call
Wind was moaning, creeping through your bedroom wall
Moonlight splashing enough to make a rich girl fall
Lightning crashing make a strong, strong woman crawl

Flyin' Phil Gaglardi wasn't the Premier, but I think the highways minister. He had a huge collection of speeding tickets; he was a religious minister too, in Kamloops; he used to purloin the government jet to zip up there on Sundays to preach.

I know who "Gaglardi's mystery pilot" is/was.

I don't know what my name means.

TI-ANB, a very old C-172 in Costa Rica. I learned to fly in that plane.

Named for the coat I used to wear to work.

Just be glad you don't have a name that doesn't translate well! Especially if you're an athlete.

"Johnnyhotrocks"...the name of a piano player in a whorehouse in one of Tom Cruise's original movies called "loosin it".

Kinda lends itself to the old aviation line, "don't tell my mom I'm a pilot, she thinks I'm a piano player in a whorehouse" :wink:
