    Sherry was a waitress at the only joint in town
    She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around
    Down Main Street after midnight with a brand new pack of cigs
    A fresh one hangin' from her lips and a beer between her legs
    She'd ride down to the river and meet with all her friends
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    Sonny was a loner he was older than the rest
    He was going into the Navy but he couldn't pass the test
    So he hung around town he sold a little pot
    The law caught wind of Sonny and one day he got caught
    But he was back in business when they set him free again
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    Sonny's playin' 8-ball at the joint where Sherry works
    When some drunken outta towner put his hand up Sherry's skirt
    Sonny took his pool cue laid the drunk out on the floor
    Stuffed a dollar in her tip jar and walked on out the door
    She's runnin' right behind him reachin' for his hand
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    They jumped into his pickup Sonny jammed her down in gear
    Sonny looked at Sherry and said lets get on outta here
    The stars were high above them and the moon was in the east
    The sun was settin' on them when they reached Miami Beach
    They got a hotel by the water and a quart of Bombay gin
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    They soon ran out of money but Sonny knew a man
    Who knew some Cuban refugees that delt in contraband
    Sonny met the Cubans in a house just off the route
    With a briefcase full of money and a pistol in his boot
    The cards were on the table when the law came bustin' in
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    The Cubans grabbed the goodies and Sonny grabbed the Jack
    He broke a bathroom window and climbed on out the back
    Sherry drove the pickup through the alley on the side
    Where a lawman tackled Sonny and was reading him his rights
    She stepped into the alley with a single shot .410
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    They left the lawman lyin' and they made their getaway
    They got back to the motel just before the break of day
    Sonny gave her all the money and he blew her a little kiss
    If they ask you how this happened say I forced you into this
    She watched him as his taillights disappeared around the bend
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    Its Main Street after midnight just like it was before
    21 months later at the local grocery store
    Sherry buys a paper and a cold 6-pack of beer
    The headlines read that Sonny is goin' to the chair
    She pulls back onto Main Street in her new Mercedes Benz
    The road goes on forever and the party never ends

    How cool would it be, if you got away, to sip frou-frou drinks on the beach while on the run?

    Of the preceding, I'd choose Russia simply because it's the biggest country in the world and I would hate to be in a prison outside of prison. Or China because of the future economic prospects.

    Shit, if I were holed up in Andorra or Djibouti, PMITA might be looking damn good right now.

    I'm sorry for wasting SportsJournalists.com's time with this thread.
