J. K. Coltrain - Between Mason & Dickson lyrics
rate meBeside me she stirs softly as I slowly crawl outta bed
An stumble through the dark tryin hard not to wake the kids
A quick shave and shower, warmin up the old Freightliner
Not much time to be a father an no time left for her
Between Mason, Ohio and Dickson, Tennessee
Caught between hard rock and southern country harmony
Leavin before first light, gettin' home way too late
Hours take their toll, eighteen wheels roll on the concrete interstate
Weekend comes her city jobs done, the kids are outta school
But Ill be gone on a local run, there's risin cost of rent an' fuel
Sunday mornin' I sleep in, shell take the kids to church and pray
In the evening we wont fight again over all work an no play
Between Mason, Ohio and Dickson, Tennessee
Caught between hard rock and southern country harmony
Leavin before first light, gettin' home way too late
Hours take their toll, eighteen wheels roll on the concrete interstate
You know, they say Jesus died for everyone; red an blue, blue an gray
But lately it seems Im on the losin side of barely gettin by day to day
Between Mason, Ohio and Dickson, Tennessee
Caught between hard rock and southern country harmony
Leavin before first light, gettin' home way too late
Hours take their toll, eighteen wheels roll on the concrete interstate
Hours take their toll, eighteen wheels roll on the concrete interstate
An Lord I pray someday, some way Ill be free
Caught between hard rock and southern country harmony
