Mac McAnally - "Tryin' To Make The Yellow Lights"

Flowing in this river of cars
Following these traffic light stars
I drive because I'm driven
To be more than what I am
I've got a roll of ones and a car that runs
And a girl that's cute from an angle
Old folks can't ignore me
They put their ears to the ground and listen for me
Trying to make those Yellow Lights fast
Oh, trying to me those Yellow Lights

Radio plays a never ending song
When it's good and when it's bad I sing along
And the words they don't mean nothin'
Just a sound track of my mind
When you laugh at me my philosophy
Is the same as yours with an angle
Sometimes that ain't nothin'
Those are the times that keep me jangled up and
Trying to make those Yellow Lights fast
Oh, trying to me those Yellow Lights

Everybody's takin' their chances
Maybe finance or power or romance
And the things they think they need
Are out there flashing all the time
unsure
unsure
On way or the other almost everybody's tangled up
Trying to make those Yellow Lights fast
Oh, trying to me those Yellow Lights
