I tried burning a copy off the net, but my CD burner wouldn't copy it...
I wanna drive around this summer with my windows rolled down and pull up next to the
Ricki's and blast it in their ears.

2. If you are having trouble burning music
grab a program called dBpowerAmp Music converter, it's free and easy to use. Then just convert your file to a .wav and you'll be able to burn it easily. Just paste the software name into Google it'll take you right to the site.
