Solved: Duplicated Post - I'll Bet Anything No One Gets This One ...

including myself, incidentally. It all began so innocently: A friend asked if I knew the title to a song in the 2001 movie "Bandits" w/ Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton. The song is played as the two escape after their first bank robbery in a silver PT Cruiser. Yup, this has driven me so crazy I actually sought out a copy of the movie. Anyway, I thought, "What a dufus ... " In fact, I probably said that aloud as I checked out the soundtrack listing at IMDB. Not there. I Googled it. That led me in a thousand different directions and guess what? The only USEFUL site I located was this one (who knew?) but I'm not sure there's anyone who can solve this one. I've asked friends, conferred w/ a gazillion sources as well. Ready? Here goes:

"And all this time I was driving about
She was fondling my hair and holding my neck
And all I was thinking was "Oh, what the heck?"
Take the long way home
Take the long way home

So. What do you think? This one has really gotten on my last nerve. HELP! And, good luck!

Sounds like you're describing Long Way Home By J.J. Cale. One of my favorite artists in my past life. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzMTIaLLYIA

Early in the morning, about a quarter to four
Me and my girlfriend walkin' out the door
We're heading for the car and we got right in
And that's when I noticed the shape she was in
She turned to me and said right out
Let's steer it awhile, let's steer it about
Take the long way home, take the long way home
Make this night last
Well we drove down town and up in the woods
We drove around and around till I understood
I was holding the wheel, she was making out
And all this time I was driving about
She was fondling my hair and hugging my neck
And all I was thinking was, oh what the heck
Take the long way home, take the long way home
Make this night last
I was looking in the mirror and to my surprise
There was two big red lights shining in my eyes
I pull over and he drove alongside
And out of his car and up to my right
He looked at her and she looked at him
And the next thing I noticed he got right in
Take the long way home, take the long way home
Make this night last
Take the long way home, take the long way home
Take the long way home, take the long way home
Make this night last

This was my favorite song of his. Poco did a really sweet version too. Might be a little mushy for you though I still like it a lot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6FnMKx5crs
