Intro

Four quarters on the flat screen, cold front hittin' the pane The whole nation take a deep breath, ain't worried 'bout the rain

Verse 1

Eighty-eight keys and a C# minor mood, that's the sonic table set V1 is the gratitude, look around at the crew, ain't finished with the mission yet Turkey in the oven, Auntie pullin' up, the mac and cheese is hot The tension of the year, it just evaporates when we finally find the spot From college dorm to cross-state flights, we all pull up the chair Chosen family in the Friendsgiving, every hand is there Green bean casserole, a sweet potato dream, smellin' like the home Gotta hit that quick reflection 'fore we check the second score, gotta find your zone

Pre-chorus

You know the rules of the season, yeah, you know what we need to get to From the struggle to the blessing, there ain't nothin' that we can't get through

Chorus

Gravy Train is comin', yeah, that's the final stop Full plate on the counter, watch the whole world stop From Chuseok to Chuseok, Mid-Autumn in the fold One family, one country, that's the story told

Verse 2

Across the ocean, they got Chuseok, they got the harvest day Liberia got the same vibe, find a different kind of way The wealth gap ain't a myth, you see the difference in the scene Some sittin' at a shelter, others sittin' with a big-budget cuisine The isolation hit different when the whole world shuts down the speed Checkin' on the roommate who ain't got the place to plant his seed Yeah, the NFL is playin', three games runnin' through the day But the real MVP is the one who finds a reason just to pray

Bridge

The laughter's loud, the house is chaos, but the love is always true A little pressure on the surface, gotta push ourselves right through This ain't just about the food now, this is legacy we keep It's the promise that we made before we finally fall asleep

Verse 3

Three games on the schedule, anchors for the day, that's the American pause Unity for a moment, ignoring every single one of the flaws V3 is the resolution, man, the table's clean and set We took the mixed emotion, we took the struggle, no regret The high-fives and the arguments, they all part of the flow We honor all the ancestors who helped us watch the garden grow Check the mirror, thank the one that's lookin' back, you made it through the year Now we pass the torch and tell the next one that the finish line is near

Pre-chorus

You know the rules of the season, yeah, you know what we need to get to From the struggle to the blessing, there ain't nothin' that we can't get through

Chorus

Gravy Train is comin', yeah, that's the final stop Full plate on the counter, watch the whole world stop From Chuseok to Chuseok, Mid-Autumn in the fold One family, one country, that's the story told

Chorus

Gravy Train is comin', yeah, that's the final stop Full plate on the counter, watch the whole world stop From Chuseok to Chuseok, Mid-Autumn in the fold One family, one country, that's the story told

Outro

Pass the sweet potato pie. Hit the pause button. The love is the fuel... the love is the...
