Between Nashville and L.A.

An escapee at a roadblock
A cheetah in a trap
A spent round on a bullet train,
Lodged between the clicks and clacks
A broken watch's second hand
Coltrane is playing taps
Play the music
Face the music
And headed either way
Andretti's on a pump car
Between Nashville and L.A.
A glass half full, half empty
A storm front movin' slow
An urge to plow the fields,
While kicking back to watch it grow
A painter watching paint dry
A stop light good to go
Play the music
Face the music
And headed either way
Andretti's on a pump car
Between Nashville and L.A.
A fire down to an ember
A mercenary home on leave
A magician with a thousand tricks
But nothing up his sleeve
A believer with a laundry list
Of things he can't believe
Play the music
Face the music
And headed either way
Andretti's on a pump car
Between Nashville and L.A.
A dreamer with insomnia
An angel tripping on his wings
Just an ordinary take on
Extraordinary things
A redemptive message spoken to
A choir of the redeemed
Play the music
Face the music
And headed either way
Andretti's on a pump car
Between Nashville and L.A.
Andretti's on a pump car
Between Nashville and L.A.
