~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
I been out on that open road
~#**************#~
But you can be my full-time daddy, white and gold
~#**************#~
Singing blues has been gettin old
~#**************#~
But you can be my full-time baby, hot or cold
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus 1]
~#**************#~
Dont break me down (Dont break me down)
~#**************#~
I been traveling too long (I been traveling too long)
~#**************#~
I been tryin too hard (I been tryin too hard)
~#**************#~
With one pretty song (With one pretty song)
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
~#**************#~
I am alone at midnight
~#**************#~
Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I
~#**************#~
Ive got a war in my mind
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
So, I just ride, just ride
~#**************#~
I just ride, I just ride
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Dying young and playing hard
~#**************#~
Thats the way my father made his life and art
~#**************#~
Drink all day and we talk til dark
~#**************#~
Thats the way the road dogs do it, light til dark
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus 2]
~#**************#~
Dont leave me now (Dont leave me now)
~#**************#~
Dont say goodbye (Dont say goodbye)
~#**************#~
Dont turn around (Dont turn around)
~#**************#~
Leave me high and dry (Leave me high and dry)
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
~#**************#~
I am alone at midnight
~#**************#~
Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I
~#**************#~
Ive got a war in my mind
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I just ride, just ride
~#**************#~
I just ride, I just ride
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Im tired of feeling like Im fucking crazy
~#**************#~
Im tired of driving til I see stars in my eyes
~#**************#~
Its all Ive got to keep myself sane, baby
~#**************#~
So I just ride, I just ride
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
~#**************#~
I am alone at midnight
~#**************#~
Been trying hard not to get into trouble, but I
~#**************#~
Ive got a war in my mind
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I just ride, just ride
~#**************#~
I just ride, I just ride
~#**************#~
