Ride On

Peggy Sue rode away last night, on a rocking horse

Straight into the pale moonlight, make believe of course

But what's a little girl of eight

Supposed to do when she's up so late

She can't sleep 'cause it sounds like hate

Coming from her momma and daddy's room

Ride on, ride on

Out to where it don't hurt no more

Ride on, come on

Back to how it was before

Your momma left and your daddy cussed

All they ever seem to do is fuss, ride on

Tommy Lee's got a space machine,

he keeps it ready on the launching pad

'Cause there've been times that he has seen,

an alien invade his dad

So he heads out for the stars

Past the moon and straight to Mars

But what about the invisible scars

That come in a bottle that his daddy brings home

Ride on, ride on

Out to where it don't hurt no more

Ride on, come on

Back to how it was before

Your momma left and your daddy changed

You don't even know who's to blame, so ride on

Some people just lose control, some people hit overload

Some people act like some people, they never thought they'd be

So why can't we all see

The only antidote, The only way to cope

The only true hope is love

So everybody won't you,

Ride on, ride on

Out to where it don't hurt no more

Ride on, come on

Back to how it was before

Go ahead and test your faith

There's still a lot of hope, it's never too late

To ride on the wings of love, ride on
