Last night
No way
i was gonna be left hungry
Then your daddy caught me sneakin out your bed
It's just a game i play
It's just a role i play
Dont think, sweet baby
I'm messin with your head
I'm a smooth rider baby
You know i just keep movin on
I don't know why I like to carry on the way I do
it's just that I'm in love with you
If see me out there runnin
And you hear the sherriff's comin
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're running for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away
I'm a smooth rider baby
You know i just keep movin on
I don't know why I like to carry on the way I do
it's just that I'm in love with you
aawwww
If see me out there runnin
And you hear the sherriff's comin
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're running for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away
I'm a smooth rider baby
