Nothing But Time Lyrics - Singles - Browne Jackson

(by Jackson Browne & Howard Burke) 

Rolling down 295 out of Portland, Maine 

Still high from the people up there and feeling no pain 

Gonna make it to New Jersey, gonna set it up and do it again 

I got a bottle of wine (pass it over) 

I got a broken white line (I'm still sober) 

There ain't nothin but time between this Silver Eagle 

And that New Jersey line 

Well it's a rock and roll band or a movie you can take your pick 

And it ain't bad work if you can get it 

But you gotta make it stick 

But getting any kind of sleep on this rolling motel--that's the trick 

It's just a bottle of wine (pass it over) 

It's just a broken white line (I'm still sober) 

It's just a whole lot of time in the twilight zone 

Between me and these friends of mine
