Two years ago Tommy was pulled over for speeding on the way to a Rick Derringer concert at the Club Tangiers in Akron Ohio. Ultimately after this stop by the Ohio State Patrol he was incarcerated for 2 weeks in the Heartland Behavioral Health Center and then transferred to the Tuskawarus County Jail for 2 weeks of solitary confinement..... all mind you without a trial or a hearing of any sort.... Yep... The train left and Tommy wasn't allowed to get off. They even incarcerated his guitar...... And we all thought that Constitutional Rights actually meant something in this country didn't we.........Ha...
Lyrics
I'm stranded in Ohio
Walkin home from the county jail
Been there 31 days for reflection
But there's no one here to hear my tale......
It was Friday the 13th
Dead straight up full moon
Rick Derringer was playin' in Akron
You know I know all his tunes
I had a brand new used Camry
Had the title in my hand
I'd been jammin' the night before
Crystal Mountain is killer fun band
The cruise control was set
As I rounded that right hand curve
I was tokin' a killer green bud
When I was clocked by the Ohio State Patrol
He got my money and my stash
You know I missed 'ol Ricky's show
Did 31 days locked up for dust
You know they just wouldn't let me go
Well I'm stranded in Ohio
Walkin home from the county jail
Been there 31 day for reflection
But there's no one here to hear my tale.....
