Shortcut to Waco

The gettin's in the going
 Said the river to the ocean
 On their winding way to where they meet
 This feelin' we keep holding on
 Should be lettin' go and let the
 Current sweep us off our feet
 Show us where we're supposed to be
 There ain't no shortcut to Waco
 Whichever way that we go
 We ain't gonna make it on time
 We oughta inch a little closer
 Ease on over to the shoulder
 Make some lost highway, roadside,
 Star aligning, heart pounding lovin' tonight
 Speeding up won't get us nowhere
 Slowing down won't mean we quit
 Inside the present is the gift
 And it's the only one we get
 There ain't no shortcut to Waco
 Whichever way that we go
 We ain't gonna make it on time
 We oughta inch a little closer
 Ease on over to the shoulder
 Make some lost highway, roadside,
 Star aligning, heart pounding lovin' tonight
 You say tomato
 I say tomato
 Baby it's all the same
 You scream I scream
 We all scream sometimes
 To keep from going insane
 There ain't no shortcut to Waco
 Whichever way that we go
 We ain't gonna make it on time
 We oughta inch a little closer
 Ease on over to the shoulder
 Make some lost highway, roadside,
 Star aligning, heart pounding lovin' tonight
 The gettin's in the going
 Said the river to the ocean
 On their winding way to where they meet
