Keep It Between the Lines - Sturgill Simpson - MP3 instrumental karaoke

From flying the flag for modern-day outlaw country with his 2013 debut High Top Mountain and referencing Ray Charles with the 2014 follow-up Metamodern Sounds in Country Music to going full bluegrass on the Willie Nelson-featuring The Ballad of Dood and Juanita the following year, Sturgill Simpson has continuously demonstrated his chameleonic tendencies across albums. "Keep It Between the Lines" appeared on the celebrated singer-songwriter's alt-country triumph A Sailor's Guide to Earth, a concept album which took home the Best Country Album gong at the 59th Grammy Awards as well as getting the nod for Album of the Year. On bright soul-pop jam “Keep It Between the Lines," he serves up some sage advice to his son: "Just keep the engine clean / Keep your eyes on the prize / Everything will be fine / Long as you stay in school, stay off the hard stuff And keep between the lines."
