Owner Operator Lyrics by Virgil Shaw

Still Falling

2002

He is the owner operator
And she waits
And waits tables on the weekends
They let it fall
He got off
On exit 22
And somehow, somehow she knew
Didn't pretend to transcend from the start until the end
They just let it fall
What about me?
Look where I am
It's like I'm sitting here
In Missouri
And I think that I learn most everything I ever needed to know
In the Navy
Somehow he landed the plane
Drovе down the freeway, conversate, talkеd on the phone and changed lanes
He didn't think I need a drink, he didn't even blink
He just let it fall
And in the night
The lights go off on the wall
Except for the couple who didn't know at all
They didn't know, they didn't show, they just left it open and let it go
They just let it fall
What about me?
Look where I am
It's like I'm sitting here
In Missouri
And I think that I learn most everything I ever needed to know
In the Navy
He reaches down and picks up a can
And thinks to himself
Right on man
He didn't call, he didn't ball, he just opened it up and let it fall
And in the night
Travels across the plains
It's been a real long time
But he never complains
It just sits, never quits, never loses its wits
