Story behind the song
Awhile back I ended up with Leon Russell's drum machine.
I wrote 20 songs around everything left on it and there were 9 that he arranged which are denoted by the number he saved them on the machine as being included in the title, for example (Song 01).
I also included alternate versions of those 9 songs as instrumentals.

Lyrics
Rolling down highway 49
You know who Im trying to find
Going to hit highway 61
Then Im going to have some fun
Night falls on everyone
The way it falls on you then it falls on me too
Cant you hear the wind howling
Howls round you and it howls round me too
Rolling down Highway 49
Going to bring a jug of wine
When I hit highway 61
Going to get my job done
Rain an sun falls on everyone
The way it falls on you then it falls on me too
Cant you hear the wolves howling
Howls round you and it howls round me too
Rolling down Highway 49
You know Im gonna get whats mine
Going to hit highway 61
When you see me you better run
Shadows fall on everyone
The way the fall around you they fall around me too
Cant you hear the banshee howling
Howls round you and it howls round me too
Going to find an drink the midnight sun
