Cigarettes & Truckstops Lyrics


Cigarettes & Truckstops
  • In the vein of "Midnight Train To Georgia" (which was originally a Country song), "Cigarettes & Truckstops" finds Ortega singing about traveling a great distance to be with the man she loves. It's not practical, but when everything you see brings up cherished memories, it's time to get on the bus.

    In our interview with Lindi Ortega , she explained that this song is not about heartbreak, describing it as "a song of nostalgia." Said Lindi: "It's actually more of a love song than anything else."
  • Ortega grew up in Toronto, but moved to Nashville in 2011, where she recorded this album. Many of the ghosts of Music City show up in her songwriting - she tells us that Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard are some of her influences. This song references a crossover Country classic released before her time: the line "you and I were islands in the stream" connotes the Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton duet.

    Tin Star Lyrics


    Tin Star
  • Lindi Ortega is a Canadian singer/songwriter who moved to Nashville in 2011, where she developed her modern Outlaw Country sound influenced by the likes of Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton. When we spoke with Lindi , she told us about this song, which is the title track of her third major label album: "It's about living in Nashville and doing what I do and living amidst a city where people come to see stars," she said. "And kind of being in the underground of that. You don't have to be a singer or a musician to get into what that song's about. It's really about just struggling and then holding onto your dream and trying to make it in the face of maybe not having the huge success that people might expect you to have. But doing it because you love it. That's what the song's about."
