Back Seat Driving in Motorcycle City is a short tribute to Jacmel, tourist and cultural destination in Haiti, where everyone, it seems, has a motorcyle. The music is by Richard Morse and his band RAM. The lyrics are clearly wise admonitions about "back seat driving" and learning from history. The refrain is a call and prayer to Dambala, the name for the Voudoun "God in the Sky", creator of the heavens and earth.
