Lyrics

[00:09.71] .
[00:12.76] I'm doin' seventy-two in a sixty-five,
[00:15.68] On I-24 in a four-wheel drive
[00:18.73] Got a ten o'clock on Eighteenth Avenue
[00:24.58] And there's a thirty percent chance of rain all week
[00:27.50] And the high today is gonna be eighty-three
[00:30.44] They're playing Highway 101 on 102.5
[00:35.01] An eighteen wheeler by my side
[00:39.38] .
[00:39.69] Numbers all around, flying by, up and down,
[00:45.71] Some as slow as Christmas coming,
[00:48.60] Some like the speed of sound,
[00:50.77] And we all wonder, what they mean,
[00:54.19] The highs, the lows, the in betweens,
[00:57.24] Most of them mean absolutely nothing
[01:01.93] But some of them mean everything
[01:07.13] .
[01:11.46] I met her at 9:15 on my buddy's back porch
[01:15.04] Shootin' bottle rockets on July fourth
[01:18.16] We were both nineteen and she was a perfect 10,
[01:22.35] .
[01:23.85] Then three years later 'neath a million stars,
[01:26.72] In my F-150 on her granddad's farm,
[01:29.85] I slipped a half-carat diamond on the third finger,
[01:32.68] of her left hand
[01:35.79] And asked to be her one and only man
[01:38.63] .
[01:39.01] Numbers all around, flying by, up and down,
[01:44.91] Some as slow as Christmas coming,
[01:47.85] Some like the speed of sound,
[01:49.91] And we all wonder, what they mean,
[01:53.60] The highs, the lows, the in betweens,
[01:56.47] Most of them mean absolutely nothing
[02:00.98] But some of them mean everything
[02:08.71] .
[02:13.97] John 3:16, the Fab four,
[02:17.35] The fifty yard line, the thirteenth floor,
[02:20.33] 9/11, the dirty dozen,
[02:23.21] We're all waiting on the Second Coming
[02:27.93] .
[02:29.22] Numbers all around, flying by, up and down,
[02:35.21] Some as slow as Christmas coming,
[02:38.20] Some like the speed of sound,
[02:40.35] And we all wonder, what they mean,
[02:43.98] The highs, the lows, the in betweens,
[02:46.85] Most of them mean absolutely nothing,
[02:52.02] Oh most of them mean absolutely nothing,
[02:57.36] But some of them mean everything
[03:04.05] Oh numbers
[03:08.71] .
[03:10.46] I'm doin' seventy-two in a sixty-five,
[03:13.40] On I-24 in a four-wheel drive
[03:16.52] Got a ten o'clock on Eighteenth Avenue
[03:21.09] .
