For me it was Jackson Browne, the song was Cocaine.

It was 1978, we were in the blue Nova. Mike was driving and Melinda was in the passenger seat.

We were doing loops on a Sunday around Sioux Center.

We were out of church for the fourth time that week.

Catechism was on Thursday.

Church twice on the weekend. Youth group was in there too.

I think it was on an 8-track.

We were all singing along. and we had Coke, Dr Pepper, and Doritos.
