about

Americana track co-written with Cornbread (Micheal Traylor) on Jean's front porch in Bouldin Creek in Old South Austin.
Reflects a relaxed and bygone time.
Also reflects the complexities of navigating in a pre GPS world, and navigating understanding when two humans communicate.

lyrics

Driving sideways down the streets of Austin.
Helping you out.Just a nice guy.
Occupied with other things on my mind.
Different ways of talking. Different ways of getting to the same place.

Wanted to know where we were going to.
I didn't need to know how to get to you.
Following instructions, getting directions.
Don't tell me how to get us there.

Backseat driving with a glimpse of friendship
Meet me at the bar tonight
Southern traveler, at Bouldin take a right.

Wanted to know where we were going to.
I didn't need to know how to get to you.
Following instructions, getting directions.
Don't tell me how to get us there.

oohs.

Wanted to know where we were going to.
I didn't need to know how to get to you.
Following instructions, getting directions.
Don't tell me how to get us there.

oohs.
