Rodeo likely should have brought himself a muzzle.
They were not quite out of the city yet, but he couldn't seem to stop singing to himself. He and Charlie were picking their way through the last of the clutter of cars that blocked I-95, after crossing out of the city via the George Washington Bridge on foot. It had been a bit perilous-- there were still some of the infected on these roadways, wandering between the cars or sometimes even hiding beneath them. The last thing that they needed was Rodeo calling attention to them by crooning out the classics, but as if he had some form of musical tic, he just couldn't seem to stop himself.
"Oh mama, I'm in fear for my life from the long arm of the law," he warbled out of nowhere, after keeping himself silent for an entire eleven minutes. He was carrying most of their gear on his back, and he sauntered along as if their weight was nothing, one hand in his pocket and the other holding his gun. The cars weren't as tightly cramped together in the area they were making their way through, and in the distance he could see that the road was cleared up enough that they could choose one of the vehicles and start driving the rest of the way fairly soon.
