- Oh, sure, sure.

- Hey, god damn, I forgot my wallet.

It's in the pickup.

- Oh, well here.

- I'll catch ya.

I'll catch you later.

You remember. Okay.

Give me three beers.

Man, you was really

working out there today.

Cranked around them

corners with the big boys.

- [Voiceover] You race today?

- (laughs) On that dumbass course?

Not me, buddy.

- [Voiceover] Didn't think

I'd seen you out there.

- Hey man, what class you race?

- You'd have seen me, babe,

I'd have had you to the fence.

- What class you race, man?

- Hey, give me three steaks too, huh?

And put it on my tab. My manager's got it.

- [Voiceover] Who in the hell is that?

- That's the cat who got

suspended out of Ascot.

Boozin' it up in the pits, man.

- The ol' bubble for the system.

You.

Oh, damnit!

I forgot your change.

- Oh oh oh, that's all

right, that's all right.

- Hey, where was I at?

- You were gonna tell me

how you broke your spine.

Which is what first caught my eye.

- And to this day I can't sleep in a bed.

- Hell, man, where do

you sleep, on the floor?

- That's right, that's

where. On the floor.

- Must make it pretty on little lady here.

- What?

- I mean, if your husband's

sleeping on the floor all night.

What I mean is that (chuckles)

must be pretty hard on you.

- Him?

- Well, it would on me.

- I haven't seen the floor since

I met him, much less a bed.

The whole two weeks we've been in love.

- We've been sleeping in the car.

- Oh, then you two aren't married then.

- No, this is my buddy,

this is my bosom-buddy.

Aren't ya, honey? Some him your bosoms.

- Hey, well. (chuckles)

Why don't I just get a

room out here then and uh,

we all just settle down for the night.

- Hey.

My name is Halsy Knox.

- Hi.

- This here's what's-her-name from Simi.

- Sylvene McFall.

- How do you do, Sylvene?

- I just guess we're all

free, white and 21 eh?

- And uh, anything goes?

(roosters crows)

(snoring)

(door creaks open)

I guess I was born for runnin'

I guess it's in my blood

'Cause the sweet sound

of a hopped-up engine

Is the sweetest sound I've heard

And I keep on movin', movin', movin'

Gotta keep on movin' down the line

Don't try to claim me, woman

'Cause I'll be gone

tomorrow by this time

I'm at home, gal, when I'm runnin'

And I guess that's all I'm worth

And maybe next to the devil,

I'm the meanest man on Earth

But I gotta keep movin', movin', movin'

Honey, gotta keep movin' down the line

Hey, don't be lookin' for me

'Cause I'll be gone

tomorrow by this time

I've had a woman in every city

I've had a woman in every town

Ain't no need to put your claim on me

'Cause you're never gonna get me down
