Play That Song Lyrics by Karen Waldrup

2009

[Verse 1]
I drove out away too far
With not enough gas in my car
In a rush to get here
Now I’m rushing to get there
Reset the odometer
You get thirty miles on an empty tank I think
[Chorus 1]
But what if I break down out of nowhere
Play a song that’ll ease my mind
Cause I’m running out of time
And when I hear it and I forget this
Ooh, it soothes my soul
So play that song
[Verse 2]
Check the mail at my house
Six bills they turn the lights out
Back home I had it made
Now I’m wishing I would have stayed
Get paid, next week
I can float a check and I won’t get caught
I thought
[Chorus 2]
But what if I break down out of nowhere
Play a song that’ll ease my mind
Cause I’m running out of time
And when I hear it and I forget this
Ooh, it soothes my soul
So play that song
[Bridge]
There’s something ‘bout music that takes us there
A common ground that we all share
[Chorus 3]
So if you break down out of nowhere
Play a song that’ll ease your mind
Hear it and forget
Ooh, it soothes your soul
So play that song
Play that song
