[Verse 1]
I'm headin' to Atlanta, leavin' on a Delta plane
Uh huh, alright
I'm headin' to Atlanta, leavin' on a Delta plane
Uh huh, good good
I'll carry my trench coat but I sure don't think it's gonna rain
Ah, ah, oh no

[Verse 2]
The gold is in my pockets, caps and tabs are in my sleeves
Ah, ha
Gold is in my pockets, caps and tabs are in my sleeves
Oh yeah
Stand to make a thousand if I can just get past the thief
Oh yeah, oh there they are, oh

[Verse 3]
I'm a junk runner honey, hotter than the noonday sun
Oh mercy
I'm a junk runner honey, hotter than the noonday sun
Oh yeah come true
If I don't make Orlando, you know my runnin' days are done
Oh yeah

Robert Clark “Bob” Seger (born May 6, 1945) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and pianist. As a locally successful Detroit-area artist, he performed and recorded as Bob Seger and the Last Heard and Bob Seger System throughout the 1960s. By the early 1970s, he had dropped the “System” from his recordings and continued to strive for broader success with various other bands. In 1973, he put together the Silver Bullet Band, with a group of Detroit-area musicians, with whom he became most successful on the national level with the album Live Bullet, recorded live with the Silver Bullet Band in 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan. On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.

In 1976, he achieved a national breakout with the studio album Night Moves. The Night Moves title track became his first Billboard Top 5 single and the album started a string six consecutive albums landing in the Billbaord Top 10. The 1980 album, Against the Wind, topped the charts.
