Ghetto Cowboy

We used to cruise in high school. I think it's like a rite of passage. You're suddenly free from your parents dropping you off and tired of the same kids you grew up with. We used to cruise SAnta Rosa Ave and in Healdsburg too. Either in Charis's mustang or Laura's big truck. Sara and I drove a Ford Taurus station wagon. Hardly something worth cruising (smooth move mom and dad). I wonder if people still cruise or if gas prices make that cost prohibitive. Anyhow, we used to listen to this song. And for some reason as I was plugging along on herd records tonight it came into my head and I had to look it up. It's really goofy. Bone Thugs must have been high when they came up with it.


I still know all the words.

Conveniently You Tube had this song alongside Ghetto Cowboy. Another senior year favorite. We used to hang out at the Taco Bell in Sebastopol with Goose. Sara and I had boyfriends who worked there. I remember sitting on my car just blasting this waiting for them. It was Lucy's CD. I'm not sure if I have her copy of it or if I somehow got my own. We were in no way ballers.


I love this song. Reminds of Goose and the high spot and low spot.
