Let's Ride

About the time that I turned 14

I got a job doing landscaping

Those days were long and my old boss was mean

About the time that I turned 16

I got a car and no place to be

I’d fill up the tank and drive out to the sea

The Rockies ain’t too far from here if we drive all night

The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light

So let’s ride

Let’s ride on through the rain

Come on and take me anywhere that you want to be

So let’s ride

By the time that I turned 19

I’d seen so much and I was still green

It’s taken me a time or two

To learn the things I watch you do for me

There I was at 29

I can’t believe I’m still alive

Though it was never easy, yeah

You and me were born to survive

The Rockies ain’t too far from here if we drive all night

The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light

So let’s ride

That was my escape

A way to change the tape

That was playing, that was playing in my head

The Rockies ain’t too far from here if we drive all night

The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light

So let’s ride

Let’s ride on through the rain

Come on and take me anywhere that you want to be

Let’s ride, let’s ride

Let’s follow the skyline

And when we make it to the other side

We’ll find all the bluest skies
