I've been out on that open road You can be my full time, daddy White and gold Singing blues has been getting old You can be my full time, baby Hot or cold Don’t break me down I’ve been travelin’ too long I’ve been trying too hard With one pretty song I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast I am alone in the night Been tryin’ hard not to get into trouble, but I I’ve got a war in my mind So, I just ride Dying young and I’m playing hard That’s the way my father made his life an art Drink all day and we talk ’til dark That’s the way the road doves do it, ride ’til dark. Don’t leave me now Don’t say good bye Don’t turn around Leave me high and dry I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast I am alone in the night Been tryin’ hard not to get in trouble, but I I’ve got a war in my mind I just ride I’m tired of feeling like I’m f*ckin’ crazy I’m tired of driving ’till I see stars in my eyes I look up to hear myself saying, “Baby, too much I strive, I just ride.” I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast I am alone in the night Been tryin’ hard not to get in trouble, but I I’ve got a war in my mind I just ride
