Continental Drifters - Christopher Columbus Transcontinental Highway lyrics

Written by vicki peterson Main voice: vicki Produced by continental drifters & mike mayeux Released on 'vermilion' (1999) Also released as a single a-side with "meet on the ledge" (1998) It took two hours to drive out of post-quake l.a. Where the freeway is sliced up like sheet cake Got new tires i'm not gonna worry Got three days to go so i'm not in a hurry Get into tucson and what do i find I'm having some trouble just keeping my mind On the 10. Driving by that detour we took To watch the sunset at the scenic overlook The light was lovely but to my surprise The most violent colors were in your eyes All the reds and yellows, black and blue It's what i remember from driving with you On the 10. On the 10. Whoa oh, white noise and lightening Ooooo on the radio, oh no. Looking up a tree like a georgia o'keefe And the texas stars are in high relief University road, you think i'd have learned So many new ways to get bitten and burned At the devil's river inn at three a.m. Hey, give me those keys i gotta get Back on the 10. On the 10. Whoa oh, white noise and lightening Ooooo on the radio, go robert, go! Feeling unbound of heart and breast Got the visor down and i'm headed west A little wiser now, i'm unimpressed By the secret you and i confessed On the 10 (whoa oh). On the 10 (whoa oh) On the 10 (whoa oh) On the 10 (whoa oh).
