The morning's broken and her ticket waits
the hazy purple shimmer looks so great
and the road's so smooth
recently laid
and it's hardly used

Now country music at this time of day
can make the future seem so far away
though the trade was slow
the cabby knew more
than he let her know

So she said, this conversation's dead
nobody wants to watch the track go by
The trucks are waiting in the loading bay
it's gonna be another busy day in the Middle East
she fixes her hair, in a hotel suite

So she said, this conversation's dead
nobody wants to watch the track go by
so upset, picked up the cigarette,
nobody wants to watch the track go by.

So she said, this conversation's dead
nobody wants to watch the track go by
so upset,
picked up the cigarette,
nobody wants to watch the track go by.
