They just played a country song around 10:25 pacific time, a duet, one line was “there’s a time to stay and there’s a time to rock and roll” ---

Goldwing got it right. The line is from a Jimmy LaFave song “Car Outside”. Here are the lyrics: Car Outside You know I’ll never understand it, babe Wanderlust in my soul And though I want to be with you Hey, I don’t really know Cause I’m looking out your window, girl And I’m drifting with the wind Moving on is my middle name Hey, here I go again There’s a car outside And there’s a road There’s a time to stay And a time to rock and roll You’ve been a real good friend But I’m on my way If I don’t see you real soon I’ll see you down the road someday I hear the highway calling me Time and time again Clearer than the master’s voice Just like a next of kin I tried to settle down one time It was in my younger days But I fell into a ramblin song And it carried me away Well there’s a car outside Don’t you know There’s a time to stay And a time to rock and roll You’ve been a real good friend But I’m on my way If I don’t see you real soon I’ll see you down the road someday There’s a car outside Don’t you know There’s a time to stay A time to rock and roll You’ve been a real good friend I’m on my way If I don’t see you real soon I’ll see you down the lost highway
