He drove illegal cars
We wrecked havoc in bars
And laughed at authority
But we never got busted
Somehow we were trusted
Twister Sevano and me
Twister Sevano, you fiddlin' fool
Where in the world might you be
I've known you to travel
From Philly to Tucson
And twice from New York to Paris
Twister Sevano, you rowdy rake
What have you done with your life
Is it true, have you settled down in the city
A real job, two kids, and a wife
He drove illegal cars, we wrecked havoc in bars
And laughed at authority
But we never got busted
Somehow we were trusted
Twister Sevano and me
Twister Sevano, you did your thing
You flowed with each changing tide
No, I never forgot you
You taught me you've got to be free
There's nothing to hide
Twister Sevano, you Nate the Skate
Do your banjo and fiddle still ring
Is it bluegrass or jazz, or razzmatazz
Do grown men still cry when you sing
He drove illegal cars, we wrecked havoc in bars
And laughed at authority
But we never got busted
Somehow we were trusted
Twister Sevano and me
