My song choice could be nothing less than this song by Johnny Cash. I cannot figure out what happened to the beginning of this week. Here it is Wednesday and soon the weekend will be here again and hey, things are moving much too fast just as fast as the “Orange Blossom Special”.
This song was tailor-made for me because the man on the train is heading for Florida and perhaps considering California and I am not even sure where I want to settle yet. It also mentions New York and I am kind of homesick for my hometown.

I vote for some place warm! Florida because California has its problems and is expensive.

I don't know why but suddenly before it's too late you make me want to run off and join a rock and roll band @GreatMartin
