    Lyrics
    Everyday the same people to and from home.
    Cars trucks and busses some are towed and some are towing.
    You almost know that guy in the pickup, you kind of know his dog.
    You can bet on who's got coffee bought from 7-11.
    Who's getting on or off what entrance or what exit.
    And that young girl, she kind of likes her eyes.
    Stares her self down in the mirror, two seconds just too long.
    That old man's got a young boy sleeping in the back seat.
    He wakes him up to honk the horn every time they hit a tunnel.
    Faces seen before with what they drive and how they're driving
    Everybody's got a life but no one cared we kept on riding.

    Till the rain had made a "River Of Rt. 80"
    Every car just stopped dead every driver came alive.
    The rain slowed up enough for everyone to crawl outside.
    Arms and legs a stretching distant thunder still exploding.
    And strangers telling tales of where they been or where they're going.
    Cause the rain had made a "River Of Rt. 80"
    If your car couldn't float like a boat, you were stuck you were there.
    Since the rain had made a "River Of Rt. 80"
    We shared cigarettes for fun, we stood praying for the sun.
    It took a storm to stop and care.

    We stood for hours on that highway and the sky cracked open wide.
    A warm breeze blew and the sun began to shine.
    The water flowed away yet, so many people stayed for quite a while.
    Some Jersey cop got on a speaker and told the crowd to all go home.
    Some hippy on a Camaro yelled back "Hey leave us all alone"
    A limo left and came back shortly with pizza, coffee, soda and beer.
    That young girl with her makeup, she took her lipstick from it's case.
    She wrote across her windshield "God Bless this rainy day"
    I've never seen so many people shining.
    They were dancing beneath a rainbow while the sky was crying.

    Cause the rain had made a "River Of Rt. 80"
    Every car just stopped dead every driver came alive.
    The rain slowed up enough for everyone to crawl outside.
    Arms and legs a stretching distant thunder still exploding.
    And strangers telling tales of where they been or where they're going.
    Cause the rain had made a "River Of Rt. 80"
    Well if your car couldn't float like a boat, you were stuck you were there.
    Since the rain had made a "River Of Rt. 80"
    We shared cigarettes for fun, we stood praying for the sun.
    It took a storm to stop and care.
