Lyrics
They were driving south on the highway
Their business was in another town
Bigger than the town they were driving from
Business took place during office hours in both towns
This drive was considered business
The feeling of passing other cars was also considered business
A feeling of business being done
The feeling of drifting slowly through a field of moving vehicles
This was the real speed, the speed of business
Not the numbers on the speedometer
One of them was playing with the radio
Slowly changing the channel from one station to another
Sometimes listening to both channels at once
On one channel, a man was talking to another man on the telephone
The other channel was playing oldies
Gone for Good, Listening Wind
Puzzle Power, Beachwood Serenade
Sunshine and Sugar, Golden Windows
Taste of Believing, Carnival Girl
Love Walks Away, Wishing Well
Knew You Could, A Face Like That
Dark Highway, Shakin' Venus
Colored Wheels, Visit Me Quick
Lonesome Money, School of Heartache
Painted Smiles, The sound of business being done
